Roasted Green Beans Recipe
Who’s in the mood for a super easy, super delicious, and INCREDIBLY flavorful side dish to make for Easter (or any day of the year)??? If you’re still looking for the perfect recipe for this weekend, you’ve come to the right place.
Roasted Green Beans with Feta and Tomatoes (and mushrooms!) is all of those things, and thrown together in minutes!
I participated in a blog hop this month, and it was such a fun experience. It was a fun way to meet other bloggers, and try out some of their best recipes! The blogger I was assigned was Tamara from Beyond Mere Sustenance. I LOVE her beautiful site. She is a self-proclaimed “foodie”, but also loves the togetherness that a love of food brings.
“Food can (and should) be more than just a way to fill your belly and keep it quiet. It can be an adventure, it can provide comfort, it can become part of the foundation of a strong family across generations.”
It was hard to pick just one recipe from her site to recreate! I loved so many. I can’t wait to try her Miso and Orange Glazed Chicken (!!!!), Chicken and Cilantro Soup, or Irish Scallop Bisque. She has dishes with such bright and distinct flavors, and a flare for describing each recipe in a way that makes you feel you can actually taste them!
I chose to recreate her Roasted Green Beans with Tomatoes and Blue Cheese, because, well check out that post! The gorgeous colors, the bright flavors, the fresh prep. I loved everything about it. I put my own spin on it by using Feta instead of Blue Cheese. Pat can be a picky eater, and loves his Feta. I love blue cheese and think it would be a lovely compliment to these flavors. Be sure to try it Tamara’s original way as well!
Thank you so much Tamara for allowing me to explore your blog, pick your brain, and recreate one of your delicious recipes! It was quite a tasty treat. I look forward to making more of her recipes in the future! Enjoy! And be sure to try our Crispy Baked Green Beans too.
Ingredients
- 6-8 ounces cremini or baby bella mushrooms halved or quartered**
- 1 lb. fresh green beans ends snapped off
- 6-8 ounces baby bella mushrooms chopped
- 8 ounces Cherub or other variety small tomatoes
- 1 tbsp. olive oil to drizzle
- 1 tsp. garlic minced
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 1 tsp. fresh thyme leaves
- fresh ground pepper
- 2 ounces feta crumbled
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
- Steam the green bean just until tender-crisp, about 10 minutes in a steamer. Do not overcook. They will cook longer in the oven later :)
- When the green beans are tender-crisp, add them to a medium sized bowl with the mushrooms. Add the tomatoes whole.
- Drizzle the mixture with olive oil; adding salt, pepper, garlic, and thyme leaves. Toss well to combine. Spread out the mixture on a prepared 13 x 9 baking dish.
- Roast for approximately 20 minutes, until tips of green beans begin to brown and tomatoes have collapsed.
- Remove from the oven, and add about half the feta over top. Return to the oven for about 5 minutes.
- Remove from the oven. Add the remaining feta just prior to serving.
- Enjoy!

Such a pretty looking Easter side dish! Love the combination of beans, tomatoes, mushrooms and feta….yum!
Thanks so much!!! Means a lot coming from you!
This looks so delicious! I love all of those ingredients separately and together they would create amazing flavors! I’m looking for lighter, fresher recipes and this is a perfect fit!
Yay! Hope you love it!
Yum, that looks delicious! This would be perfect for a BBQ side! I’m sure even my kids would enjoy it!
Love to hear that Jeanine! Thanks for stopping by!
Oh, now THIS healthy recipe really got my attention this morn. I’ve got to try it.
Thanks Carol!!
That dish looks scrumptious. I have never tried feta in anything before and I’m not sure why. I’ve heard it was delicious so I need to take the plunge and see for myself. I’d love to fix your roasted green beans with feta for our Easter dinner Sunday.
Feta is one of my favorites! Hope you love the recipe, Happy Easter!
I haven’t roasted green beans. What a fabulous idea. Can’t wait to try it.
Thanks Christie!
Blog hops are so much fun! I love meeting new bloggers too. These is so pretty with all the colors, it would please almost anyone!
Thanks so much Laura!
I TOTALLY want this on my Easter table!
That sounds like one heck of a side dish. It would compliment my baked chicken perfectly!
Thanks for doing such a lovely post Becky! I have a couple of those “picky eaters” that describe bleu cheese as “stinky feet” cheese, and when they’re with me, we do feta also. I’m so glad you liked it. Enjoy Europe, and have a blessed Easter!
Thanks for the wonderful recipe Tamara, it was a huge hit!
