Bacon Ranch Green Beans

1 package (16 oz) frozen green beans
2 tbsp butter or margarine
1 envelope ranch salad dressing mix
4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled or bacon bits* (I like Hormel Real Bacon Bits)
In a skillet, saute the green beans in butter. Add the salad dressing mix and toss to coat. Just before serving, sprinkle in the bacon and mix.

I used a little more than 2 tbls butter, and only about 3/4 of the ranch packet. I also used a package of bacon bits instead of real bacon, becuase I was lazy. I just sprinkled them in until it looked good. This is quite tasty, and a great variation on the regular green beans!
