Ingredients

4 ripe tomatoes, cored and halved
Sea salt
Olive oil
1/2 pound thin green beans
1/2 pound yellow beans
1 can (15 1/2 ounces) white beans, drained and rinsed
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped mint
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds mild lamb sausages

Steps:

Heat oven to 350 degrees. On baking sheet with rim, place tomatoes cut-side up. Season with salt and sprinkle with olive oil. Roast about 3 hours, until lightly caramelized. Cool, then cut each into 4 wedges.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook green beans 4 minutes, until just tender. Remove with slotted spoon, drain and run under very cold water. Repeat with yellow beans, cooking 6 minutes. Pat dry.
In a large bowl, combine all beans, tomatoes, scallions and mint. Sprinkle with vinegar and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss and let sit 1 hour.
Heat grill to medium. Grill sausages about 10 minutes, turning, until well browned. Serve with salad.
