Lancaster Green Beans

These were pretty good, but I want to try them again without the vinegar and Splenda. I know, they probably aren't Lancaster Green Beans then.


Lancaster County Green Beans
1/2 c chopped onion
3 T bacon bits
1/2 c water
2 t apple cider vinegar
2 t cornstarch
1/2 t mustard
1 T splenda
1 (16 oz) can cut green beans, rinsed and drained
1 hard boiled egg, chopped

Spray skillet with butter flavored Pam. Saute onion 5 minutes. Stir in bacon bits. In small bowl, combine water, vinegar, cornstarch, mustard and splenda. Mix well using wire whisk. Pour mixture into onion mixture. Cook for 3-4 minutes until mixture starts to thicken. Add green beans. Mix well to combine. Continue to cook for 5 minutes until mixture is heated through. Just before serving stir in chopped egg.
