Roasted Green Beans and Fresh Tomatoes

By

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.
