Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 Pound Fresh Green Beans, washed and ends snapped
- 4 Large Russet Potatoes, peeled and quartered
Meat
- 1 Pound Ham, cubed
Liquids
- 2 Cups Chicken Broth
Seasonings
- 2 Teaspoons Onion Powder
- 2 Teaspoons Salt
- 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 Teaspoon Black Pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the Crockpot Base: Start by adding the washed and snapped green beans to the bottom of your crockpot. Pour in the chicken broth until the green beans are fully covered, adding a splash of water if necessary to ensure there is enough liquid for cooking.
- Add Remaining Ingredients: Layer the cubed ham and quartered potatoes on top of the green beans in the crockpot. Sprinkle the onion powder, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper evenly over the ingredients.
- Cook the Dish: Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on high heat for about 3 hours. The dish is ready when the potatoes and green beans are tender and infused with the savory scent of ham and spices.
Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding a bay leaf or some smoked paprika.
- If you prefer a less salty dish, reduce the salt to 1 teaspoon.
- Leftovers reheat well and make a great next-day meal.
- Ensure potatoes are cut evenly for uniform cooking.
- You can substitute fresh green beans with frozen if fresh are not available – just adjust cooking time slightly.
