Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    8 oz mushrooms
    1 lb fresh green beans
    1.5 Tbsp olive oil
    1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
    salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
    2 Tbsp finely grated parmesan cheese

Tips

Any mushrooms will do and you can increase the amount of balsamic vinegar for added flavor without adding calories.


Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450F/230C.
2. Wash mushrooms and let drain. While mushrooms are drying, trim ends of beans and cut beans in half so you have bite-sized pieces.
3. Cut mushrooms into slices 1/2 inch thick.
4. Put cut beans and mushrooms into a Ziploc bag or plastic bowl.
5. Whisk together olive oil and balsamic vinegar and pour over, then squeeze bag or stir so all the beans and mushrooms are lightly coated with the mixture.
6. Arrange on large cookie sheet, spreading them out well so beans and mushrooms are not crowded.
7. Roast 20-30 minutes, check for doneness after about 20 minutes. Cook until beans are tender, mushrooms are cooked, and all liquid on the pan from mushrooms has evaporated.
8. Season beans to taste with salt and fresh ground pepper, then sprinkle with finely grated parmesan.

Serve hot.
