Green Beans with Sautéed Peppers & Mushrooms

Green Beans with Sautéed Peppers & Mushrooms

Sometimes it's the most simplest of recipes that get a lot of attention when we entertain.  This is a quick and easy side dish that compliments just about any meat type.  

Personally, I like having these beans as a meal on their own, especially on those days when my husband is away and I'm not in the mood for a hearty meal.

Whatever your choice, you can't go wrong.

Veal Stew With Green Beans & Potatoes

Veal Stew with Green Beans & Potatoes

This stew is one of the first recipes my Mom taught me how to cook.  She grew up on a farm in northern Greece and I'm sure they planted green beans galore to feed their big families.  Our culture is known for eating plenty of beans and legumes.

This recipe will fill a lot of plates.  As long as the meat and beans were never previously frozen, this green bean stew can be frozen and eaten at a later date.  It's also one of those meals that tastes better the next day.

Try replacing the potatoes with yams.  (Remember yams cook a lot faster than potatoes, so add them to the stew approximately 5 to 10 minutes before completion).
