Zesty Easter Ham and Beans

Recipe By

$5 Dinners

"I’ve taken the Hurst Beans’ Easter Ham & Beans and given it a little south Texas flair. In the form of poblano peppers, diced tomatoes, and green chilies. Simple ingredients that get mixed right into the slow cooker, but they really give a fantastic pop of flavor to the beans and ham."
