Oven Roasted Tomatoes

Our Best Bites

A bunch of tomatoes, any variety
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Kosher Salt
Fresh Cracked Pepper
a bunch of garlic cloves

Preheat oven to 325

Cut your tomatoes. If you’re using small romas, just cut them in half. Anything larger, quarter them. Half Grape Tomatoes. Place tomatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil (enough to coat everything) and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lightly toss together, coating everything.

Arrange tomatoes in a single layer, skins down, on a cookie sheet lined with foil or parchment paper. Mince garlic and sprinkle over tomatoes being careful to let most of it drop directly on the tomatoes .

Place in oven and cook for 2 1/2-3 hours, depending on the size of your tomatoes. It usually takes about 3 for romas that are halved. If you quarter them (the ones in my final picture are quartered) they’ll get done a little faster. You’ll want to just keep an eye on them after about 2 -2 1/2 hours.

WHAT TO DO WITH THEM:
sandwiches, pasta, panini,
Puree in food processor with garlic cloves for a delicious tomato paste- spread on bread or add to tomatoes based sauce or soup
Puree in food processor with parmesan cheese and olive oil- spread on baguette slices
