Country Ranch Green Beans and Potatoes

This is such a great twist on an old time favorite. By just adding some Ranch Dry mix, it gives your green beans and potatoes a whole other dimension in taste. Let me know what you think about this version and y’all enjoy.


Ingredients:
1 stick butter (unsalted)
1 medium sweet onion, cut into thin wedges
2 medium regular red potato, unpeeled, 1/2-3/4″ dice
1/4 tsp. coarse ground black pepper
6 strips crisp-cooked bacon, thinly sliced
1 tsp. minced garlic, about one small clove
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon fresh oregano (1 teaspoon dried)
1 Tablespoon dry Ranch Salad Dressing or Dips Mix
1 (14.5 oz.) can green beans, drained
more pepper to taste
*salt only if desired after tasting

In medium cast iron skillet, or frying pan, melt butter. Add onion, potato and pepper. Sauté over medium heat until potatoes are fork tender. (I like to cover with a lid, add a bit of water and stir every so often.)
Add bacon, garlic, onion powder, oregano and Ranch Mix. Stir in well.
Fold in green beans and heat through, simmering, stirring gently and occasionally so that you don’t wreck them if using canned
Add pepper to taste. Add salt only if desired. *Ranch Mixes are salty.
