I've made green beans and cherry tomatoes before, but never used rosemary as a complimentary seasoning....it's Wonderful! I highly recommend this recipe since it's delicious, beautiful to look at and easy to prepare.

    I am always looking for new veggie recipes. This was fabulous! Loved the combination of flavors. Only change I made was to omit the rosemary. You may want to edit this; the amount of water was left out. Thanks for an outstanding new way to make green beans. A keeper for sure!

    This really does have the flavor of the Provence. Cooking the beans this way, they retain a lovely vivid color, and make a nice contrast with the cherry tomatoes. Pleasing both to the eye as well as the palate. Thanks for posting !

    I loved this. I used a microwave steamer bag for the beans to cut the cooking time back a bit. I enjoyed the taste so much that I ended up adding all my vegetables to the skillet.

    I have made this a number of times, I always use fresh green beans and usually use garlic instead of the shallots (because I always have it on hand). Great for a dinner party, I blanch the beans the day before and finish them in the pan.

    These were great - I loved the addition of rosemary. I would prefer a little less garlic/onion, but otherwise it was very yummy. Thanks PaulaG!

    A perfect way to make a good vegetable sublime. I didn't have any shallots so I used vidalia onion instead. I also used fewer tomatoes as I'm just not fond of them. The garlic, scallions, rosemary and basil were just outstanding together. Next time (and there will definitely be a next time) I'm going to try replacing the basil with herbs de Provence. Thanks Paula!

    Really enjoyed this recipe; it definitely dresses up a pan of green beans. Thanks for submitting it.

    Very tasty, nice looking, easy way to serve beans. Loved the flavour of the rosemary throughout the dish. I used fresh basil chopped quite finely. Served as a side dish to grilled fish and salad. Thanks Paula for a great recipe.

    What more can I add about this delicious recipe? Wonderful flavors, and if you prepare everything in advance, it takes no time at all to cook. Another winner. I'm so glad you posted it, Paula.
