  • Cut the bacon into small pieces and cook over medium heat until the bacon is fully rendered and crispy.
  • Add the onions and saute with bacon until transparent.
  • Lightly spray a slow cooker with cooking spray and add green beans. and pepper and stir making sure the bacon drippings are getting mixed in well.
  • Add bacon and onion mixture followed by the diced potatoes.
  • Add chicken broth, salt and pepper to taste. I frequently don't even add salt because the bacon has so much already.
