Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lb fresh or frozen whole green beans
4 c potatoes peeled & cubed
2 large onions peeled & cubed
1/2 c crumbled bacon bits
1/2 stick butter
1-1 1/2 tsp coarse black pepper
4-5 clove fresh garlic minced

Steps:

  • 1. Add green Beans to a large pot, cover with water.
  • 2. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic & BRING TO A BOIL. COOK TILL CRISP TENDER, ABOUT 20 MINUTES OR AS DESIRED. Add salt and pepper if desired.
  • 3. Drain water from green bean pot to a smaller pot. Add the cubed potatoes, and cook till potatoes are tender. Drain the liquid and add the potatoes to the pot of green beans.
  • 4. Add the crumbled bacon bits, and butter, stir to mix together. Taste first and see if additional salt and pepper is needed. I did not use salt because the bacon bits are already salty.
  • 5. Pour into a serving dish and serve while still hot. How could such a simple dish taste so good. It was very good, and rekindle memories of my childhood all in one.
