Oven Roasted Tomatoes
Written by Mary Nelen
This method of cooking tomatoes will result in something similar to sun dried tomatoes except the end product is more lush and fresh. The tomatoes can be served as an appetizer, as part of a salad, on house made pizza with fresh ricotta or as a side to grilled bluefish.

Ingredients
4- quarts cherry tomatoes, any kind

Preheat oven to 425
Halve cherry tomatoes and toss with salt, pepper and olive oil. Place cut side up on parchment lined baking sheet.
Place in oven and roast for 30 minutes before going to bed. Turn off heat and leave tomatoes in the oven so they continue to roast over night.
