Shaun had to cancel his trip, but is hoping to make it out here soon and we’ll go to Mancini’s and ask, although I do think I have figured it out or at least to my satisfaction.

I’ve been making them several times a week and changing up the seasoning a little; am very pleased with the simplicity and taste.

Just a little update a year later, still having beans or another vegetable almost every night. I found that cauliflower gets real soft and delicious after broiling.

Lately I have been slicing new red potatoes real thin and adding them to the beans- now that is good eating.

Bonus is that I weigh 20lbs less than before I started, although I have made other changes to my diet as well.

Hot pan with a little oil. Trim and wash the beans, while they are drippy wet scatter some seasonings on 'em - kosher salt, black pepper, some chili powder or red pepper flakes. Toss onto hot pan and cover. Keep 'em moving and cook 'em until they are "done" enough for you to eat (depends on texture/taste preference).

OK, this is filling in as a decent Vash-like thread.

Glad you are having fun with veggies, Rutager. For several reasons. They are good for you in multiple ways....they have magical powers and they fill your tummy at least as well as chips and dip. I wonder if you have come to enjoy fixing food. In my mind, it is one of the best art forms. Everyone appreciates it. Endless combinations and techniques. Everybody eats, at least a couple of times per day. And best of all, the masterpieces are destroyed. They are much rarer than other art, since only those at the table were able to experience it. In minutes, they exist only as fond memory and then you paint another one. Oh....and salt is not a spice. Technically.

Happy 2021 Rutager! I hope it treats you well! Green beans look fantastic and 20lbs lighter must feel great.

These are top-notch. :) 450 for 10 min in the toaster oven from frozen.

Hi Sup,

I do not enjoy the cooking of food, that’s why I like doing it this way, it’s super easy, healthy and quick.

The destroying of the masterpiece is probably why, if I’m going to put a lot of work into something, I want it to last.

I use seasoned pepper, that has to count as a sort of spice!

Hi Shaun,

We’ll get that steak and green beans someday! Yes, I have not been this light since I can remember; think I was a bit lighter in HS, but don’t remember any number except I am two pants size bigger now.

Take care,
Rutager
