Kgcook's Really Slow Roasted Tomatoes

Submitted by KGCOOK

"PLEASE READ FIRST! This recipe is just some of this and that I put together from here and there and I have no measurements for it. There really aren't any...except your eye ball and taste buds. Because I have to use measures I put some down BUT USE YOUR OWN JUDGMENT, NOT MY MEASUREMENTS! Use tomatoes that have thicker meats. Color does not matter. Use any combination of seasoning, or herbs, you like or leave plain. This seems like it takes longer than it really does. Recipe does not include or bake freeze time. Serving are not correct either. I use these in place of canned tomatoes for all of my recipes that need canned tomatoes. The taste is So much better too! Even on a sandwich! If you need to have juice for the recipe too, let them sit when thawing or add a little water. Tomato bites need to be done after roasting."

This is JUST the kind of recipe I LOVE Karen! I made this as posted but with 6 large tomatoes, and also garnished it with parsley too! We ate these little beauties with grilled perch, baby potatoes and a green salad and they were ALL wolfed down by only three of us! GREAT recipe, and a keeper for me! Made for your cookathon! Merci darlink! FT:-)
