Roasted Dragon Tongue Beans and Tomatoes

12 ounces fresh dragon tongue or green beans

6 ounces cherry tomatoes (about 1 cup)

1/3 cup olive oil

6 cloves garlic, peeled

1 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 425ºF. “String” the beans if necessary: Break off the stem end and take with it any string that wants to tear off. Cut large beans into 1-2″ pieces.

Toss all ingredients together in a medium baking dish (8×11 or so). Roast for 15 minutes. Stir, then roast 15-20 minutes longer, until the beans start to brown in spots and the tomatoes are broken down.

Serve hot or room temperature.
