What to do with Oven-Roasted Tomatoes

These roasted tomatoes can be used as a topping for crostini. Toast slices of baguette, spread them with a bit of goat cheese (or other cheese) and top them with the roasted tomatoes. Top the crostini with a sprinkling of herbs. Basil, oregano or thyme would all be delicious.

You can also use the roasted tomatoes in a soup, as a base for a pasta sauce or to top a simple pasta dish.

The most simple way to use them would be to serve them as a side dish, you can sprinkle a bit of feta or parmesan cheese on them to make them extra special.

I like serving them as a side with this One-Pan Roast Chicken and using any leftovers in this Creamy Tomato and Spinach Pasta or this Easy Spaghetti Meat Sauce.

How to Make it

This recipe for Roasted Grape Tomatoes is so simple and quick to make. I love how versatile it is. Feel free to use cherry, grape, or plum tomatoes for this recipe, all will work just fine.

You can add herbs and garlic to the tomatoes before roasting and if you don't like balsamic vinegar you can leave it out. It's quick to prepare and can be put in the oven while you cook the remainder of your meal.

Steps Overview:

To roast the tomatoes, start by pre-heating the oven to 425°F.

Start by rinsing the tomatoes. If using cherry or grape tomatoes simply leave them whole. For plum tomatoes, chop them into large bite-sized chunks.

Place the tomatoes on a baking sheet, add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper. Toss them well to make sure they are well coated and arrange them in a single layer on the baking sheet.

Bake for 20 minutes, stirring once after 10 minutes. Tomatoes are ready when they burst and become caramelized. Large chunks might take longer to roast, just keep an eye on them and remove them when caramelized.

How to Store:

Store leftover roasted tomatoes in the refrigerator in an airtight container or freeze them to use in your next tomato sauce or soup.

Enjoy!
