Confetti Beans

This came from a family reunion at my husband's family farm in North Dakota and is a great way to use all kinds of goodies from your garden.

Inspiration: Lots of different vegies in the fridge
Time: 15 minutes
Difficulty: easy
Special Equipment: frying pan or wok
Servings: 4

1 small onion, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 pound green beans cut in bite-sized pieces
1 whole red, yellow or green pepper, chopped
1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes
salt & pepper to taste
freshly grated parmesan cheese

Saute the onion in the olive oil until soft. add the Italian seasoning and saute for a few seconds. Add the beans and pepper and saute until beans are crisp-tender. (Add a little water & cover, if you need to). Just before serving, stir in the tomatoes & salt & pepper to taste. Sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese.

I can't remember which recipe this is? Is this a new one or is it one you made when I was a kid?
