LOUISIANA GREEN BEANS (CREOLE RECIPE FOR ZWT-9)

Louisiana Green Beans (Creole Recipe for ZWT-9) image

Found at a cooking-by-country (or region) website, just reading this recipe took me back decades to a time growing up when we would pick beans from the garden & cook them until soft w/a combo of onion w/ham or bacon. I never cared when the main-course was as long as I could have a HUGE plate of those green beans. If it was my choice to make, I would definitely dbl this recipe! Enjoy!

I've made several variations of this recipe throughout the years. I like to try different herbs and sometimes add some crushed red pepper flakes to change up the flavors a little more and make it more interesting. I found this recipe in the American Heart Association cookbook.
