Country Ranch Green Beans & Potatoes with Bacon 

Ingredients:
– Bacon (about 4-6 slices)
– Fresh green beans (trimmed)
– Baby potatoes (halved)
– Onion (diced)
– Ranch seasoning mix (1-2 tablespoons)
– Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
– Salt and pepper (to taste)
– Water or broth (1 cup)

Instructions:
1. Start by frying the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside, keeping the rendered fat in the pan.

2. In the same skillet, add the diced onion to the bacon fat and sauté until translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

3. Next, toss in the baby potatoes and cook for about 5 minutes, allowing them to brown slightly.

4. Add the trimmed green beans to the skillet, stirring to combine.

5. Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix over the vegetables, then pour in the water or broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. Stir everything together, cover the skillet, and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the green beans are bright green and cooked to your preference.

7. Once done, crumble the crispy bacon over the top and give it a gentle stir. Serve hot and enjoy the tasty combo!
