Low Carb Green Beans Recipe with Savory and Bacon

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I got over a pound of green beans and a slew of savory (the herb) in my CSA basket this week. Found this recipe on Epicurious that was low carb and made good use of the green beans, savory and some bacon that I needed to bake! So here is my low carb green beans recipe (just note that green beans can be a bit higher on the carb side so watch your portion size).

For those not familiar with the herb savory, there is a ‘summer’ and ‘winter’ version of savory. I’m using the summer savory which has a peppery taste. So if you don’t have savory, use cracked pepper as an alternative.

    Try this with pancetta too; 3oz., diced, and remove from heat after rendering. Add some garlic and red pepper flakes. No salt needed. Delicious 🙂
