When my DH and I were first married I made this for him. He thought this was the most VILE tasting stuff he had ever had, and I was to NEVER make it again!. I was so suprised our marriage wasn't annuled. As you can see-I did make it again (nearly 20 years later), but only so I can enjoy it, and post it here. My DH smirked at me and did some eye rolling when he saw me preparing this, and knew that I wouldn't dare pack it in his thermos. As a child I grew up on a farm-every animal imaginable, 17 acres or so of blueberries(child labor), and of course a huge vegetable garden(more child labor). My mother being the thrifty sort thought this up and we had this frequently. Cheap meal for 6 children. One of those 'Back to the Basics' recipes._x000D_ No measuring is really required. This is at its Absolute BEST with fresh green beans, and beautiful squeaky new potatoes(with the skins left on). _x000D_ Of course this can be made with canned or frozen green beans, or canned potatoes. _x000D_ Easily made for 1 or 2 or for potlucks.
