Green Beans & Sausage
Great one pot meal that gets better each
time it is reheated.
|
This is a dish that my mother made and I
believe her mother made as well. It was often taken to pot luck meals
and always made as soon as the first mess of new green beans were picked.
Frequently I add new red potatoes (unpeeled) and a bit of garlic. |

Preparation Notes |
1/2 - 1 lb |
Bacon - cut
into one inch pieces |
- Fry bacon to very crisp
- Add onion and brown
- Add smoked sausage slices and brown
- Remove everything from fat to a paper towel
covered plate and set aside
- Add bouillon cubes to fat
- Sprinkle in the flour and brown
- Once flour is browned, begin adding a bit of water
or bean juice if using canned green beans to make a gravy. Stir as it
thickens and add more water (juice) until you have a nice thin gravy.
- Add back in bacon, onion and sausage
- Then add beans
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cover and allow to cook through - time is not the
issue here as the flavors will come together
