MARINATED ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND GREEN BEANS WITH GARLIC AND ONIONS

Category: Asparagus

Cooking spray
1/2 lb fresh green beans, cleaned, trimmed, and patted dry
1 lb fresh asparagus, likewise
1 medium red onion, cut into rings
8 to 10 cloves of garlic, peeled and cut in half
A scant 1/2 tsp salt
2 to 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper

Preheat the oven to 400. Spray a cookie sheet or shallow baking tray with cooking spray. Spread asparagus and beans on the tray, and cover with onion rings and garlic. Salt lightly, and spray with cooking spray. Bake the vegetables about 20 minutes, interrupting several times to shake the tray. Test at about 15 minutes. When vegetables are tender, remove from the oven and transfer to a bowl or small casserole. Drizzle immediately with vinegar. Apply freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve hot, room temperature, or cold.
