Molly, thanks for posting. My Mom-in-law was Pennsylvania Dutch; she made this all the time. It was a Monday-Laundry-Day standby. Everyone I have ever served this to took the recipe home and continued to make it themselves. So simple, so good, so dependable. The really interesting thing to me is that the potatoes never turn mushy, nor do the green beans, no matter how long this cooks. And the ham is never salty. But neither is the broth. So where does all the saltiness go? It's a great recipe! Janet
