Relish
- 1 large tomato seeded and chopped (reserve any juice)

- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Green Beans
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Place green beans on a nonstick baking sheet or on a baking sheet lined with nonstick aluminum foil. Drizzle green beans with olive oil and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Roast for 15-20 minutes or until almost tender and lightly browned in places.
Relish
While beans are roasting, prepare the relish.
Combine all relish ingredients in a small bowl.
Place beans in a serving bowl and top with relish. Serve immediately.
MAKE AHEAD:
- The Tomato - Caper Relish can be made 1 day ahead. Refrigerate until needed, then let come to room temperature so the relish doesn't cool the beans off too quickly.
