Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Combine the frozen green beans, bell pepper and onion mix, and bacon bits in the bowl of a slow cooker.

02

Step
5 mins

Season generously with garlic salt and ground black pepper.

03

Step
5 mins

Distribute the butter chunks evenly over the top of the green bean mixture.

04

Step
2 hrs

Cover and cook on high heat until the green beans are heated through and tender, approximately 2 to 3 hours.

For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon bits and add a teaspoon of smoked paprika for a similar smoky flavor.
Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic salt and pepper to your preference.
To prevent the green beans from becoming too soft, check for doneness after 2 hours of cooking. Cooking time may vary depending on your slow cooker.
For a richer flavor, consider using salted butter. If using unsalted butter, add a pinch of salt along with the garlic salt and pepper.

    I used fresh green beans instead of frozen and it worked great, but I did have to cook them longer.

    These were so good, but a little salty. Next time I will use less garlic salt.
