Roasted Heirloom Tomatoes, Asparagus, and Green Beans

 Roasted Heirloom Tomatoes, Asparagus, and Green Beans

I’ll be honest with you. I am ready for fall weather and cooking! There is something so wonderful about a roaring fire on a rainy day while dinner is roasting in the oven. Even though it was warm outside today, I decided to roast our dinner which consisted of chicken, potatoes, and these veggies. Our entire dinner was made by what I had on hand so I didn’t have to go to the store – I love that! We had some beautiful heirloom tomatoes that I picked up from the farmer’s market this weekend, some asparagus that needed using up, a 1/4 of an onion, and fresh green beans from my friend’s garden. After tossing them in some good olive oil I seasoned them with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Once they were nearly roasted, I tossed them with a bit of minced garlic and continued to roast for a few minutes to prevent the garlic from burning. The green beans, asparagus, and onion were crisp-tender while the tomatoes were sweet and juicy. My kids drizzled balsamic vinegar on top to make them extra tasty. These veggies were delicious and disappeared quickly.

  2. This is a great idea for a side that I can make on the grill after I finish cooking a roast and it is resting. Thanks for the inspiration. Now to just come up with that roast….

  3. I definitely have mixed feelings about summer being over and fall coming…but if it involves big trays of roasted veggies, I guess I can be okay with it. 😛
