Easy Turkey Bacon-Wrapped Green Bean Bundles Recipe | Healthy Holiday Side Dish


  • Author: Mary

Ingredients

For the classic turkey bacon-wrapped green bean bundle recipe, you’ll need just a handful of kitchen staples:

  • Fresh green beans – snappy, trimmed, and washed

  • Turkey bacon – lower fat, lower sodium than regular bacon

  • Olive oil – for coating the beans

  • Garlic powder and onion powder – for depth of flavor

  • Black pepper and sea salt – for balance

  • Optional: Honey or brown sugar – for a sweet-savory finish


Instructions

Step 1: Prep the Green Beans

Start by washing and trimming about 1 pound of fresh green beans. Remove the tips and any tough ends.

Step 2: Season the Beans

In a mixing bowl, toss the green beans with a tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. This ensures the beans are well coated and flavorful before wrapping.

Step 3: Bundle & Wrap

Group about 6–8 green beans together and wrap them tightly with one slice of turkey bacon. Use a toothpick if necessary to secure the ends.

Step 4: Roast or Bake

Place the bundles on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast at 400°F for about 15–20 minutes or until the bacon is golden and crispy.

Step 5: Optional Glaze

For a sweet twist, drizzle a bit of honey or sprinkle brown sugar over the top before baking.
