Baked tomatoes. Halve some tomatoes and arrange on an oven dish,
drizzle meanly with olive oil, scatter tops generously with mixed herbs
(dried are fine), season and bake in oven until done.

Broad (fava) beans; steam or simmer the beans while making a dressing
with evoo and lemon juice, seasoned. Drain beans, put them back in the
hot pan, add the dressing and a dod of plain yoghurt or cream cheese,
stir to coat.

Either, steamed new potatoes, or, mashed potatoes
