Ham, Green Beans and Potatoes

Ham, Green Beans and Potatoes by Denise Sherin

Another simple and hearty Amish dish. My grandfather made this after we had a big ham dinner using the leftover ham, he called it "slop" but it was a favorite. If you are using leftover cooked ham reduce cooking time to about and hour or so then finish with vegetables for additional half hour
