INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 425°F. Combine potatoes and a pinch of salt in small saucepan and cover with 1 inch water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain potatoes and return to saucepan. Add butter and a pinch of salt and pepper and mash potatoes with fork until smooth. Cover and set aside.
Combine green beans, 2 tsp olive oil, thyme, mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper on baking sheet and toss. Roast until green beans are browned in places, 8 to 10 minutes. (4-serving meal: use 4 tsp olive oil)
