8 cups fresh green beans, trimmed

4 bacon strips, chopped

1/2 cup chopped onion

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

Place beans in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, until beans are crisp-tender, 8-10 minutes; drain.

In a large skillet, cook bacon and onion over medium heat until bacon is crisp and onion is tender, stirring occasionally, 3-5 minutes.

Add beans to bacon mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss to coat.
