Linguini with Fresh Green Beans

Feeds 4-6

I forgot I was having people over for dinner until 30 minutes before they were supposed to be here. Hehe. So I got a pot of water on and started cooking up some veggies. 

Farmers' Market

1lb. fresh Green Beans, trimmed and snapped to 1 1/2-2" pieces

1 small Green Bell Pepper, 1/2" dice 

1 medium cooked Sweet Potato, 1/2" dice

3 medium Heirloom Tomatoes, diced 

1 small Red Onion, 1/4" dice

3 cloves Garlic, minced

1/4 tsp dried Thyme

1 tbs dried Basil (or a few tbs fresh)

Co-Op

1 tbs Olive Oil

2 tbs Butter

1/4-1/2 cup Plain Yogurt

1/2 cup Whole Milk

1 package Whole Wheat Linguini, cooked per package directions (any pasta could be subbed here)

1 Lime, juiced

Salt and pepper to taste

While the pasta is cooking per package directions, in a large sauce pan, on medium high, put in olive oil, onions, and garlic. Once they start to soften, add all the other veggies, some salt and pepper, and cook until they start to soften a little too (about 3-4minutes). Then add butter, milk, yogurt and spices. Mix them all together until the veggies are covered in the sauce. Once the noodles are done, drain off the water and place the noodles directly into the pan with the veggies. Stir everything together until combined. Turn off the heat, put a cover on the pan and let everything meld together for a few minutes. When you are about to eat, squeeze lime juice over everything, add a little salt, stir, and enjoy.
