An old southern recipe from Mississippi for green beans and potatoes. You can delete the bacon or ham hock and they still taste good. Green beans adds a special taste to potatoes and I love it. Ingredients:
2 lbs fresh green beans |
2 slices bacon or 1 ham hock |
3 medium potatoes |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. In pot cover green beans with water and boil till tender with potatoes and bacon (or ham hock); drain.
2. Add your favorite seasoning (I like butter, salt, and pepper).
3. Remember ham hocks take a little longer than green beans, so if you use a ham hock, boil it first till tender then add the rest and cook. I personally never use ham hock due to fat content-I usually just use the bacon strips. I only listed it here as it was in the old south recipe.
