It's a no from me when it comes to bland vegetables. Yes, I love basic food now and then, as it can get overwhelming eating all the dishes I make. But let me tell you, my vegetables must be different and just simply a taste bomb. These amazing honey-glazed bacon green beans are an absolute hit at the dining table every time I make them. Friends and family cannot get enough of them. For my people with kids, they are absolutely in love with them.

The beans look perfect as we eat them with our eyes, garnished with pomegranate. Heavenly good is all I need to say.
This recipe is perfect for special occasions such as Christmas. It is so simple to make that you can easily eat it on a weeknight. The perfect source of vegetables is done in under 10 minutes and is so versatile.
