Ingredients

  • 1 lb. baby potatoes, quartered
  • 12 oz fresh green beans cut in half
  • 1 lb. andouille sausage cut into bite-size chunks
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
  • 3/4 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme rolled between your hands
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper omit if you don't like spicy
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add the potatoes and green beans to your slow cooker, then top them with the sausage and butter. (This order ensures the butter & sausage juices drip down over the veggies)
  2. Sprinkle all of the spices over everything in the slow cooker and cook on low for 4 hours. Give everything a stir to make sure the delicious Cajun butter coats everything and serve warm. I like to drizzle some of the sauce at the bottom of the slow cooker over each plate of food when served. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can also use full-size potatoes, but make sure you chop them into bite-size pieces.
  • Feel free to use smoked sausage, kielbasa, or turkey/chicken sausage if want a more mild sausage or you can't find andouille.
  • No need to brown the sausage, just cut it and toss it in!
