Green Beans with Cherry Tomatoes

Wash beans; trim ends, and remove strings. Cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces. Combine beans and water in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 min. Drain.

Melt butter in a skillet; stir in sugar, garlic salt, salt, pepper, and basil. Add tomatoes; stir gently, cooking just until soft. Pour tomatoes in sauce over beans; toss gently.

Transfer vegetable mixture to serving bowl; garnish with fresh basil.
