Why You’ll Love This Green Beans, Sausage and Potatoes
This dish is super easy to make, which is one of the reasons why we love it. If you are using fresh garden green beans, then you are in for a real treat. I believe that is the best way to make these but sometimes you don’t have them on hand. Canned green beans work just as well and it’s the low slow cooking that takes these beans to the next level. I feel that you must make Fried Cornbread or Cornbread Muffins to go with this hearty dish.
Swaps
You can use andouille sausage for more spice or turkey sausage for less fat and more protein. You can also leave the sausage out and enjoy the beans made without it. This is one of our most popular recipes and it’s just Green Beans and Potatoes.
If you don’t have beef broth you can always use chicken broth. I have even made it with just water in the past, so this is a very versatile recipe.
As far as the onion in this recipe, if you don’t like onion, you can leave it out. Also, play with any of the spices to your liking.
If you are using fresh garden beans, be sure to wash them, remove strings as best you can, and snap them. If you are using canned or frozen, you won’t need to do anything.
Can I Make This On The Stove Top?
Yes, you can make this on top of the stove, bring it to a boil, then turn it down to a simmer and cook until the potatoes and the beans are done. If you want to cook the beans way down like country green beans, then add the smoked sausage about 30 minutes before the cooking process is done.
