Roasted Green Beans, Mushrooms & Walnuts

We hosted Steaksgiving IV last weekend.  I saw a recipe that had beans, mushrooms and walnuts and thought it sounded like it would compliment a steak well.  I think the dish would turn out better if done on the stove top instead of the oven because the mushrooms give off so much water.  Next time, I'd roast the walnuts then saute the mushrooms for a bit.  I'd add the beans to cook and then the walnuts just to get warm.  The flavors were good but I think it could be better on the stove.

Here are the beans ready to serve

Here is one platter of the bone in rib eyes that we had for Steaksgiving IV

Ingredients
8 oz. green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-2 inch pieces
8 oz. cremini or button mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
1/4 c. chopped walnuts
olive oil cooking spray or mister
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp. truffle oil (you can omit this if you don't have it on hand)
InstructionsPreheat oven to 400 degrees.
Toss green beans, mushrooms, and walnuts together on a rimmed baking sheet. Spray with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Roast in oven for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through. Remove from oven and stir in truffle oil, if using.
