Green Bean Bundles of Joy

6 cups water
1/2 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
4 to 6 bacon strips
3/4 cup Italian salad dressing

In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add beans; cover and cook for 3 minutes.
Drain and set aside. Cut bacon in half lengthwise; place on a microwave-safe
plate. Microwave on high for 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 minutes or until edges curl. Place
four or five beans on each bacon strip; wrap bacon around beans and tie in a
knot. Place bundles in an 8-in. square baking dish. Drizzle with salad
dressing. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 10-15 minutes or until beans are
crisp-tender. Broil 4 in. from the heat for 2-3 minutes or until bacon is crisp.


Yield: 4-6 servings.
