I don’t know about you, but there are just some days where I just don’t feel the need to spend hours on dinner. Those days? I would love to just throw sandwich meat and bread at my family with a grin and a big ol’ “Here ya go” but unfortunately for me, my head and heart just won’t let me do that. That’s why I LOVE my slow cooker and this recipe especially! I mean what could be easier than putting it on to cook and walking away?! This slow cooker sausage, green beans and potato recipes is just one of those recipes and it’s one of my family’s all time favorite meals!
The great thing about this one is that it really is foolproof. My Emma can make it herself (with a little help with the chopping part) and I have no issues whatsoever getting her to eat her veggies with it! It really is down home comfort food! Add it to your next menu plan and you’ll have a new family favorite too! Ready to see how easy this is?
You Will Need:
- 1-pound package of smoked sausage or Kielbasa sausage
- 1 ½ pounds of fresh green beans or 4 cans
- 5-6 potatoes (you can use any type of potato – new potatoes are especially good!)
- 1 tablespoon of seasoned salt
- 1 – 1 ½ cups of chicken broth
- Pepper, to taste
To start, wash the potatoes and green beans then chop them and the sausage into bite size pieces. I really like easy so I don’t bother to peel my potatoes, but it’s personal choice. Peel yours if you’d like.
Toss it all into your slow cooker then pour the chicken broth over it all.
Season with the Seasoned Salt and pepper and cook on low for 8-10 hours.
Serve with crusty bread and enjoy!

This is similar to a Dutch recipe handed down from my Dad’s family, except the potatoes and green beans are mashed together before serving. It was my husband’s go-to meal for the kids when Mom wasn’t available. Delicious!
I made this the other night for my family. I didn’t have fresh green beans, so I used canned beans and waited to add them until potatoes were nearly done. Mine only took 4 hours on low in my slow cooker. Mine must run extra hot! Husband and son loved the recipe, and told me I should cook it often. Thanks for sharing this delicious and easy recipe. 🙂
