A beautiful and tasty side dish to make when cherry tomatoes, basil and green beans are in season.

Warm New Potatoes, Cherry Tomatoes, and Green Beans with Basil

Ingredients

    This is an awesome recipe and so, so simple. I made it without the green beans because I didn’t have any fresh ones and it was still awesome and one of my favorite vegetarian side dishes.

    Nice recipe. I oven roasted the green beans and potatoes together with herbs and then added the tomatoes last 10 minutes of cooking. Very tasty.
