These Swamp Potatoes and Sausage are hearty, full of flavor and comforting. Its nickname probably comes both from its extra-deep South origins, and its resemblance to the bayou’s margin at low tide. Many Southerners also know this dish as old-fashioned smothered green beans. Serve alongside crusty bread for soaking in the delicious juices. While it may not win any beauty contests, its taste more than makes up for it!

Ingredients

3 pounds gold potatoes, cut into 1½-inch pieces

1 small onion, chopped

1 pound smoked sausage, sliced

1 pound fresh green beans, cut into 2-inch pieces

1 packet onion soup mix

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ cup butter

Directions

1Add potatoes and chopped onion to the bottom of a slow cooker. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning. Toss to coat evenly.  

2Layer the sliced smoked sausage and green beans on top. Sprinkle with onion soup mix and garlic powder. Place pieces of butter evenly over the top.  

3Cover and cook on Low until potatoes are tender and everything is well flavored, 6 to 7 hours, stirring a few times throughout the process and just before serving.
