Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I make this dish in advance?
A: Yes! You can assemble the green beans with the sauce and bacon, cover the dish, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking. When ready to bake, let the dish sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before putting it in the oven.
Q: Can I use frozen green beans instead of canned or fresh?
A: Absolutely! If using frozen green beans, make sure to thaw them and pat them dry before adding them to the baking dish to prevent excess moisture from watering down the sauce.
Q: Can I substitute the soy sauce with something else?
A: If you’re looking for a soy-free alternative, try using coconut aminos or tamari (a gluten-free option) in place of the soy sauce. Both will provide a similar savory flavor.
Q: How do I make this dish low-carb?
A: To reduce the carbs, you can use a sugar substitute like stevia or monk fruit in place of the brown sugar, or simply reduce the amount of sugar used in the recipe.
