Green Beans with Cherry Tomatoes image

I FOUND that beans, basil and tomatoes make a very tasty combination of flavors, especially in summer, when all these ingredients can be garden fresh. I like to serve this pretty vegetable dish when entertaining. It's so colorful! -Shirley Heare, Fayetteville, North Carolina

I made this dish with canned green beans and cherry tomatoes. It turned out just as good as when I make it with fresh vegetables. I will definitely be using canned vegetables again when I'm short on time.

This dish was so easy to make and it turned out so delicious! The green beans were still slightly crunchy and the cherry tomatoes burst with flavor. I served it with grilled chicken and it was a perfect meal.

I'm not usually a fan of green beans, but this recipe changed my mind! The cherry tomatoes added a sweetness that balanced out the bitterness of the beans. I'll be making this dish again for sure.
