Is this at an SCA event?  Are you trying to do a period feast?  If so, 
you might want to reconsider the potatoes and green beans as the former 
is definitely not period (unless you  opt for sweet potatoes, which are 
late period) and the latter isn't really a period dish...in fact, IIRC 
green beans themselves aren't period.

If you really want to do potatoes, I do have a great late period sweet 
potato and apple dish, if you're interested.  Also there are a number of 
green veggies that are period...broccoli, sallets of all sorts, 
asparagus, etc., etc., etc.
