Ham, Potatoes, and Green Beans image

A farm-food classic, but low in fat and perfectly suited to today's lighter diets. Not a soup, not a stew, but a one-pot meal that stays good on those busy days when everyone has to eat on a different schedule.

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups ham, diced
2 lbs white potatoes
1 -2 lb fresh green beans or 1 -2 lb frozen green beans
1 onion (optional)
water
black pepper

Steps:

  • Cube the potatoes, peeling first if desired.
  • String the beans and break into 2 inch pieces.
  • Coarsely chop the onion.
  • Place ham, potatoes, beans, black pepper, and onions into a wide, shallow pot or dutch oven.
  • Add enough water to come within a couple inches of the top of the food.
  • Bring the pot to a boil then simmer gently for 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
  • This can be drippy so I suggest serving it in bowls or soup plates.
  • Cornbread makes a good accompaniment if you want to sop up the juices.
