Default Green Potatoes, what to do?

I was making my famous beef stew. When it came time to peel and chop
the potatoes to put into the pot, it turned out that they were green.

I considered the following options:

1) Finish simmering, cool it down, refrigerate, then purchase
additional potatoes tomorrow to simmer in the pot with them.

2) Reduce the stew a little, and pair it up with a bed of brown rice.

3) Add whole wheat pasta (on hand) to round it out.


I went with #3, boiling the pasta separately and adding it to the
stew. It took a whole 14oz box of whole wheat rotini to create the
desired consistency.

This was the right choice.
