Get ready for the bitter cold headed your way in a day or so, make stuff that can be eaten later. A couple days ago I made this...


Potatoes and Beans.

5-6 med sized potatoes (I like red potatoes because the don't turn to mush easily)
1 med. onion cut into smallish pieces
1lbs fresh green beans cut into 1 inch pieces
1lbs some kind of sausage cut into 1 inch pieces, I like Andouille. but your smoked sausages will do.
1 large Bay leaf. some black pepper.
2Tblsp olive oil

In a large pot partially cook the potatoes with the Bay leaf, cut into chunks, peels and all, drain and set aside. Rinse out pot, dry and start cooking the onion in olive oil over medium heat, add beans. A few minutes later add the sausage pieces. When all that is good and hot, add the potatoes back in with 1/2 cup water, (maybe a little more, a dash of white wine with the water is a good thing too) cover and simmer until potatoes and beans are tender. Is really good for next day eats and also considered good hangover food by some. I just like it because it fills you up and keeps you warm.
