Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion (diced)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon basil (freshly chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 pounds snap green beans (fresh or frozen, rinsed and strings removed)
  • 1 potato (medium, peeled and diced)
  • 3 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth, low-sodium, fat-free)
  • kosher or sea salt (to taste)

Instruction

  • In a medium skillet saute onion and garlic on medium-low heat until tender, about 4 minutes. Add sauteed onion and garlic along with all other ingredients to the slow cooker. Recommend 5-7 quart slow cooker.
  • Cover and cook on low 8 hours. Cooking time may vary depending on how tender you like your green beans. Southern-style green beans are typically cooked until they are falling apart.
