Plate it with juicy roasted chicken, creamy mac and cheese or sweet honey cornbread.

Store them in an airtight container for three to four days.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make these green beans and ham ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>If you have a holiday dinner coming up and tons of things to check off your to-do list, you can easily make these green beans in advance to lighten your workload. Follow the recipe, cool them down and store them in your fridge for three to four days. You can reheat them for your gathering using a slow cooker, microwave or stovetop.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze these green beans and ham?<\/h3>\n<p>If you accidentally cook too much, freeze these green beans and ham for two to three months.

While the ham delivers the savory flavors in this green bean dish, it isn\u2019t necessary. You can swap the pork for mushrooms\u2014try shiitake, maitake or portobellos\u2014to get smoky, meat-like flavors. Additionally, you\u2019ll want to nix the butter for a vegan one.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Can I use a different vegetable in this recipe?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>While we recommend green beans, if you have other vegetables sitting in your fridge that you want to use up most work really well in this recipe.
