Green Bean Asparagus Salad

This is a very tasty and healthy salad of roasted asparagus and green beans. I got the inspiration for this dish from an episode of Rachel Ray. It is not the same, but close. Roasting the vegetables brings out great flavor, while retaining the crunch of the vegetables.  When you prepare this dish, remember that the green beans take longer to cook than the asparagus.  I like to make this dish to go along with grilled dishes. It has a lovely color and gives a new spin on the definition of salad. For extra flavor, you can also roast the tomatoes until they burst.
