ROASTED GREEN BEANS WITH MUSHROOMS

Roasted Green Beans with Mushrooms

The last few recipes I posted were from the South Beach Diet. Today I have another. I roasted the vegetables in oil, balsamic vinegar and parmesan. I enjoyed them and ate most of them by myself. The key is not crowd the cookie sheet. Spread the veggies out so the cook and brown evenly.

Ingredients:

1 pound fresh green beans Trimmed and cut

1 container mushrooms, sliced evenly

1 ½   tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 

2 tablespoons parmesan cheese

Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Wash the mushrooms and drain. While, the mushrooms are drying. Trim the ends of the beans and cut them into bite sized pieces. Cut the mushrooms into slices ½ inch thick.

Whisk together the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Coat the vegetables with the mixture and spread on the cookie sheet. Roast for 20- 30 minutes. Cook until all the water is evaporated. Season the beans to taste with salt and pepper. Add grated parmesan.
