Rinse the green beans under cold water and trim the ends. Set aside.
Chop the bacon strips into bite-sized pieces. Peel and thinly slice the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped bacon and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
Add the sliced onion to the skillet and cook in the bacon fat over medium heat until softened and golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Toss the minced garlic into the skillet and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Push the onions and garlic to the edges of the skillet. Add the green beans to the center and a tablespoon of olive oil if needed. Sauté the green beans, stirring occasionally, for about 7-8 minutes or until tender but still slightly crisp.
While the green beans are cooking, whisk the eggs in a small bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Create a well in the green beans and pour the eggs into the skillet. Stir gently to scramble the eggs as they cook, incorporating them into the vegetables once they are mostly set, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir the crispy bacon pieces back into the skillet and mix well. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Serve immediately as a side dish or a warm addition to your table.
