Fresh is certainly nice. But, frozen is nice - and important to a person with
limited time, convenient. One of my favourite things that can't bemade
successfully with frozen green beans (or none that I've found) is green beans,
new potatoes and pearl onions (you can use frozen for those and I usually do).
But, for nearly everything else, peas, sliced carrots, etc. the prep is already
done for you.

Then you freeze the leftovers in their liquids in a collector container until
you have enough to make a "scraped icebox" soup.
