Total Time: 25 minutes

Game Plan:

1. Prepare ingredients while water for pasta comes to a boil:

• Chop olives and parsley
• Wash and trim green beans
• Bring water for green beans to a boil

2. Add pasta to boiling water, and place green beans in steamer while pork browns.

3. While olive-caper sauce reduces, toss pasa ingredients together

Quick Tips

Substitute frozen whole green beans in place of fresh--no cleaning or trimming is needed.

Vermicelli with garlic and herbs: Cook 8 ounces vermicelli according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain and toss with 2 tablespoons each of extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and chopped fresh parsley; 2 teaspoons bottled minced garlic; and 1 teaspoon each of dried basil, salt, and black pepper.
