Sesame Green Beans

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon canola oil

1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil 

1 pound fresh green beans, washed (I use a steam-in-bag, cooked)

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Directions

Warm a large skillet or wok over medium heat.

When the skillet is hot, pour in canola and sesame oils, then place whole green beans into the skillet.

Stir the beans to coat with oil. Cook until the beans are bright green and slightly browned in spots, about 10 minutes.

Remove from heat, and stir in soy sauce; cover, and let sit about 5 minutes.

Transfer to a serving platter, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

I've noticed that fact also...but I would hate to see it go!

Don't know why other contributors don't post here.

PAN ROASTED LEMON POTATOES WITH DILL (10 mins)

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. baby red or yellow potatoes
• 3 to 4 tbsp. butter
• 1 lemon, juice of (I use bottled juice)
• 2 tsp fresh snipped dill (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Place the whole potatoes in a shallow, microwave safe glass bowl in a single layer (you may need to do two batches if they don't all fit). Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, making sure to the potatoes are not touching the plastic wrap.
2. Microwave on high for 4 minutes and 30 seconds. Be careful when removing from microwave, as the dish will be very hot. Uncover and slice each potato in half.
3. Meanwhile heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. When the skillet is hot toss in the potatoes, 3 tbsp of butter and 1/2 of the lemon juice, stir to coat the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper, and the dill. Let the potatoes caramelize in the pan, by stirring just twice per minute, until they are golden brown on all sides. Add more butter and more lemon juice if desired. Enjoy!
