Ingredients:
– 2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed
– 3 pounds potatoes, cubed
– 1 onion, chopped

Directions:
Place the cubed ham at the bottom of the slow cooker.
Add the trimmed green beans and cubed potatoes on top of the ham.
Scatter the chopped onion over the green beans and potatoes.
Pour the chicken broth over the ingredients in the slow cooker, ensuring that it covers the vegetables and ham.
Dot the top with butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.
