Ok. Repeat REMIX LOL

Alright.  I often improvise...I no longer have those potatoes I THOUGHT I had. (Mama brain!)  So I have some premade gnocchi (something I need to try making myself) that I will be making a similar sauce for.  As well as another favorite, country green beans with bacon & onion! YUM.  Pig fat x's two. ; )

Country Green Beans with Bacon & Onion

1/2 chopped white or yellow onion
2-3 cloves chopped garlic
green beans (preferably fresh with ends cut off) (or 1 bag frozen)
3-4 stripes chopped bacon
beef stock (or broth)

saute onion and bacon over medium-high heat.  Once cooked, add in garlic and saute for 3 or so minutes.  Then add in green beans and cook for 1-2 minutes.  Pour in 1 cup or so of stock. (this is going to be the "risotto" of green bean dishes. YUM!  Cook down liquid.  Add in a little more. (eye ball it)  Can simmer on medium heat, covered. Cook for about 20 or so minutes.

As for the sauce for the gnocchi, I am totally winging it.  We'll see what I come up with! LOL  I'll post later and let you know how it comes out.
