Roasted Green Beans and Fresh Tomatoes
By á-24534
Sometimes simple is best. Just a few fresh herbs accentuate the natural flavors of sweet tomatoes and roasted green beans.
This is the perfect side for a burger, grilled chicken or steak. It's equally delicious served on mixed greens drizzled with balsamic vinegar, with herbed brown rice, or added to marinara sauce and then tossed with pasta and topped with shredded cheese.

Step 1
Preheat oven to 450ºF. Coat a large roasting pan with cooking spray.
Place green beans in a single layer in prepared pan and coat with cooking spray. Roast until desired doneness, stirring once or twice, about 10 to 15 minutes.
