This was an awesome side dish. I enjoyed it more than the meal, as did my boyfriend. The sauce is so great with the tomatoes. Have made a number of times!

Great side dish. We love greens with our dinner, i was getting tired of preparing the same steamed green beans (and other similar veggies)all the time, this was the bomb - easy to make and new taste.

This outstanding vegetable dish had my vegetable-hating extended family raving at Thanksgiving dinner, and they REQUESTED it again for Christmas! Easy to prepare, BEAUTIFUL to present, good for you -- what's not to like? I steamed fresh green beans, sauted slivered garlic cloves in the butter, used grape tomatoes sliced in halves (less watery than cherry). I tossed the steamed beans into the butter & garlic concoction and sauteed a bit more, then added the tomatoes when I turned off the heat, so they simply picked up the warmth of the already prepared dish, and did not actually "cook" and get mushy. Fabulous, and THANK YOU for this one!

Just OK, but not enough for a "keeper". Had to spice them up a bit more.

Outstanding recipe! If I could give it more than five stars I would. Looked beautiful and was so easy to prepare. Even my picky kids liked it. I made this for my husband's birthday last night and served with grilled filet mignon and the sugar snap peas with mint recipe from Allrecipes. Great flavors. The red/green color combination was really beautiful as well and think this would be great as a Christmas dish. Used french cut frozen green beans.

Great recipe - I added sauted mushrooms to the green beans and tomatoes before adding the dressing for a twist, and it was the "big hit" for my Thanksgiving dinner! Thanks for sharing!

I left out the basil and used grape tomatoes these were quick and easy to make. Fresh grean beans are so much better than canned or frozen.

I used frozen green beans and fresh garlic and this recipe was wonderful.I loved the tomato and basil flavors. If you use fresh garlic you will have to add some salt though. This is a recipe I will use often. Thanks!
