Tangy green bean recipe that is sugar-free but sweet from the Maui sweet onion and sour from the apple vinegar. Celebrating my first green beans of the season. This light green bean recipe is terrific with seafood.

In a medium skillet, fry the bacon then remove leaving the drippings in the pan. Add the onion and cook over high heat, stirring until softened, about 2 minutes.
