Ham and beans with greenbeans

Easy dinner

This is a delicious dish that I grew up with as a good side to almost anything that you wish to eat. I hope you enjoy, if you try these out.

Not sure if this is a Pennsylvania Dutch thing or not, but we make this all the time as a way to use up the fresh green beans.

Grew up with beans. Always a crowd pleaser.

A sweet start with a bite at the end. You will never eat regular ham and bean soup again!

This isn't the most traditional way of making ham and bean soup but still has amazing flavor. I didn't use ham hock, ham shank or bacon which seems to be common. We used a homemade ham stock that we had in the freezer made from the bone of a spiral ham. For the ham chunks I used a combination of leftover ham from a holiday meal and the last bit of the ham I smoked this past summer. If you don't have smoked ham or double smoked in my case you can use a smoked turkey leg and let it simmer in the pot. Or even a drop or two of liquid smoke just to give the extra depth of flavor. Also used the dehydrated onion in place of fresh chopped because it seemed like it would just get lost in there. The only thing I might do differently next time is add spinach or another green to the party.

My house smells so heavenly right now. The soup is in the final meld stage of cooking. This is an easy workday soup. Put the beans on when you wake up, turn them down when you leave for work, and add the veggies when you get home.

Ham & Bean Soup. (I need better lighting hahah)

Yummy comfort food.

Years of experimenting and finally found the one we like!

Had some leftover Ham so I decided to make beans with it.

I used to love this as a child and still love it till this day. It is a great hearty family meal and so delicious🤗

Comfort! Especially when you don't want to be let down!

Lima beans (butter beans) are a delicious and healthy way to get protein and fiber in one dish. Adding greens makes it even better! Instead of soaking the beans overnight I prefer the 1-hour "quick soak" method. The prep work can be done easily at the same time.

Delicious with porkchops! :positive

Tasty for blended/pureed for stage after gastric surgery - not a lot of protein.

Mmmmmm :beer :chef

#porotosconriendasThis is a traditional soup very popular in Chile. This soup is made with beans and spaghettis or beans with long pork skin threads that resembles the horse reins. Is very popular to serve it with longanizas (sausages), chorizos or chicharrones (fried pork skin). In this case I made it with hickory smoked ham left over from New Year’s celebration.https://youtu.be/FikFS6DAPBc

This recipe is for people who do not like green beans. Once you taste these you will love them.

I recently went to a local farmer's market and acquired fresh locally grown green beans & radishes. I also recently acquired the knowledge that you can eat radish leaves! 😏 They are actually very nutritious and are similar to using spinach, kale, or any other greens. I had a few slices of ham left and figured why not throw it all together! 🤷🏻‍♀️👍 I accidentally used too much oil so this was a bit greasy this time but was still very yummy. It was gone before half the family could even get any and I had a few angry children that they'd missed out! 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 Next time I will definitely have to double the recipe for my large family! 👌 This makes a great side dish or appetizer, and even a delicious main course as well. 👏🤤

This is an old Italian dish that I got from my grandmother and mother. I always loved it and it’s an excellent non-meat meal!

I really didn't want Spanish Bean Soup just something a bit different.
