1 1/2 lbs. potatoes (Yukon gold, red, or purple – chopped into bite size pieces)
2 tbsp Basil olive oil
½ lb. green beans, blanched
1 jar borettane onions (President’s Choice has them)
1 small red onion, sliced thin
½ lb. pecorino toscano, cut into ½” cubes (alternately use a parmigiana)

  5. Place roasted potatoes, green beans, both onions and pecorino toscano in a large bowl.
  6. Add 1 cup of basil pesto and toss gently to combine all ingredients.
