This was really good. How can you ever go wrong with potatoes and thyme? I used fresh green beans so I steamed them first. i cooked the potatoes in the broth mixture and then added the green beans when the potatoes were done. I used chicken broth instead and found that i didnt need the starch because the starch from the potatoes thickened it quite well.

Excellent side dish! My boys that do not like green beans cleaned their plates!

This was pretty good but it took longer to cook...maybe my potato slices weren't thin enough. The flavors were good and a nice change to my standard green bean uses. I will make this again.

Just average. I would recommend adding the beans until potatoes are 1/2 way cooked...ended up looking like goulash. Needed more flavor, but considering it's a low cal side dish, was just okay and very easy to make.

Good and easy. I used 2C. chicken broth instead of the vegetable broth. I threw in some chopped onions. Added extra corn starch to make broth thicker as well as some Mrs. Dash at the end for an extra kick. At 420 calories (by my estimates) and no oil ... this one's a keeper.

The changes I made to this recipe were that I sauteed the potatoes briefly in butter along with some chopped red onion before adding the broth, seasonings and fresh green beans. I also added some kielbasa chunks to make this a one-skillet meal. Didn't find it necessary to add the cornstarch.

Good idea... Didn't have everything at home, and was not in the grocery store mood, so changes were made. Turned out great, but wasn't a vegetarian-like dish anymore: - Recipe was doubled: ...Hungry boys will do that to a recipe anyway - No fresh parsley: Used some dried seasoning that had mostly parsley in it... to taste... - No vegetarian Worcestershire: Used the regular stuff - No vegetable broth: Used 1 cup beef broth and 1 cup french onion soup (I think this was key!!) Residents and guests alike raved... there was nothing left!

This was very good -- next time, I'll cut back on the thyme as it was a little too much for us... or, maybe I'll substitute garlic (we're garlic fanatics!). Great side dish!!!

I am giving this one star because it turned out absolutely terrible. No flavor, just gross. And it takes a lot for me to say that. I don't know if I did something wrong, I can't even think of one thing to save this recipe. I won't make this ever again.
