Name: GREEN BEANS AND POTATOES - The Southern Lady Cooks

"Green beans and potatoes is one of my favorite side dishes. I grew up on this dish. I remember when my mother cooked fresh green beans and potatoes straight from the garden seasoned with a ham hock and we could not get enough. They were just that good! ..."
