Ingredients

  • 1 16 oz pkg Cubed ham
  • 3 Idaho potatoes  cubed
  • 1 28 oz can Cut green beans or 2-3 cups fresh green beans
  • 1/2 Medium onion chopped
  • 2 14 oz cans Beef broth
  • 1 14 oz can Water (use beef broth can)
  • 1 teaspoon Minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon Beef base or bouillon
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pepper

Instructions

  • In a large skillet or stock pot saute, on medium high heat, the ham until lightly browned on both sides.
  • Add the garlic and onion and saute until onion is translucent (about 3-5 mins)
  • Add the rest of the ingredients and cook until potatoes are tender (about 15 mins)

Notes

If I am in a hurry I skip the browning the meat part of the recipe and throw everything in the crock pot for about 3 hours on high. 
There should be some liquid leftover leaving it more like a stew, not quite a soup. You can always add more water if needed. Fresh green beans take more liquid to cook than canned.
