Ingredients

fresh green beans
brocolli hearts
garlic
butter
olive oil
oregeno
thyme
salt
pepper
basil
parsley


Prepare fresh green beans for blanching. Peel top layer of brocolli hearts off and cut stalk at a slant. Boil water and add salt, blanch beans & hearts. In saute pan, melt butter, olive oil. Add garlic, beans & hearts. Add spices to taste. Don't over cook, you want your beans tender with a slight crisp.

As with many of my dishes, there may not be measured ingredients. In this case, you will need as many beans and hearts to serve enough people as a side dish, and use spices, butter and olive oil accordingly.
