Bacon Bean Stalks

1 pound fresh wax or green beans
6 bacon strips
1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Place beans in a saucepan and cover with water; bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered,
for 8 minutes or until crisp-tender. Meanwhile, in a skillet or microwave,
cook bacon until partially cooked, about 3 minutes; drain on paper towels. Drain
beans; place about 12 beans on each bacon strip. Position one end of beans so
they are nearly even; cut about 1/4 in. from that end so stalks will stand when
served. Wrap bacon strip around beans; secure with a toothpick. Lay stalks flat
on an ungreased baking sheet. Sprinkle with onion powder. Bake, uncovered, at
400° for 10-15 minutes or until bacon is crisp.

Yield: 6 servings.
