String Beans with Potatoes

Clean fresh string beans, breaking off both ends of beans. Rinse in cold water.

Add string beans to salted, boiling water and cook for 15-20 minutes. If using frozen beans, cook 5-8 minutes.

In another pot, add potatoes to cold water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 15-20 minutes. Combine string beans and potatoes. Add olive oil, then stir well.

One-pot recipe:

Cook potatoes for 10 minutes, then add string beans and cook together an additional 10 minutes.

* Use fresh string beans or one 10 oz. package of cut or whole frozen string beans.
