Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.


2 pounds haricots verts or slender green beans, trimmed
1 pound medium shallots
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
Cook haricots verts in boiling salted water until tender, about 4 minutes (or 6 minutes if using green beans). Drain. Transfer to bowl of ice water to cool. Drain well.
(Can be made 1 day ahead. Wrap in several layers of paper towels. Seal in plastic bag and chill)
Cut off and discard ends from shallots. Cut shallots lengthwise in half, then remove peel with paring knife.
Melt butter with oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add haricots verts and shallots and saute 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium-low; saute until shallots are browned and tender, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with thyme. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
