Oven Roasted Red Potatoes & Green Beans

One of our dear friends, Pam, gave us some fresh green beans. This dish was the perfect way to use them up. My husband loves potatoes and I absolutely love fresh green beans, so we compromised and made this side dish together. It paired well with some leftover smoked ham we had in the freezer and some fresh fruit.

Hope everyone had a great 4th! :)
