1 lb green beans, trimmed, and
cut into 1" pieces
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 leeks, white and 1" of green, thinly sliced

2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
= (or 3/4 tspn dried thyme)
Salt, to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Cook green beans in a large saucepot of lightly salted boiling water until

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add leeks and cook 5
minutes, until softened; add garlic and cook 1 minute more. Add wine,
tomatoes and thyme.

Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Boil 2 minutes until most of
