Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh green beans washed & trimmed
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup Italian dressing
  • 2 cups grape tomatoes halved
  • 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425F.
  • Prepare a 9x13 oven safe dish with cooking spray.
  • Trim the beans (defrost if using frozen) and toss with the Italian dressing to coat them.
  • Add the green beans to the baking dish and bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
  • Take the pan out of the oven and add the tomatoes.
  • Place back in the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the tomatoes start to burst.
  • Remove the beans from the oven and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper if desired.
  • Serve warm!

Notes

  • Top with crispy bacon for a little extra texture.
  • Sprinkle with toasted breadcrumbs for extra buttery flavor.
  • Grate cheese on the top just before serving.
  • Use fresh or frozen green beans.
  • Don't have cherry tomatoes? Substitute fire roasted diced tomatoes instead.
  • If you don't want to use Italian dressing, make your own marinade with olive oil, spices, and minced garlic.
