Lemon Nutty Bacon Green Beans

What a delicious side dish! These lemon nutty bacon green beans are super delish! I’ve always been one to add bacon into my green beans but lemon is something new for me. This is another delicious recipe from my friend Dawn. I’m really enjoying making her recipes and sharing them with all of you! I told her she should start up a blog of her own. With our job, it’s so time consuming, I totally understand that she has no time. So I will continue to share some of her delicious recipes with you!

Lemon Nutty Bacon Green Beans

The lemony flavor added to these green beans is really unique! Definitely a different taste from the typical plain ol’ green beans! With every bite, you have a array of flavors, from the bacon to the lemony flavor, to the almonds and the green beans! Your palate will be in heaven, especially if you are a green bean lover!

Making this style of green beans sure does change up the typical side dish! Fresh, lemony, bacon goodness!
