This is the simplest recipe I have on my blog. Only 5 ingredients are needed to make these delicious Roasted Grape Tomatoes.

What to do with Oven-Roasted Tomatoes

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

You can also use the roasted tomatoes 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 easy, quick and really versatile. Feel free to use cherry, grape, or plum tomatoes for this recipe, all will work just fine.

You can add herbs and or 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.

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

If using cherry or grape tomatoes simply leave them whole. For plum tomatoes, chop the tomatoes 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.

This a great recipe to have on hand for any extra fresh tomatoes you need to use up. Don't forget to freeze any leftovers to use in your next tomato sauce or soup.

Enjoy!

Your tomatoes look lovely and I really appreciate the Interesting photo explanations! The light on those in the pan is beautiful!! Thank you! You're also making me think about photography... ๐Ÿ™‚

    These look great! I wish I had a camera to take my food pictures with, but my Nikon is currently unavailable and now taking pics with my phone. My Szechuan eggplant food blog picture does not give its deliciousness justice! Any tips? Can u check it out and let me know what u think?

      Hi Abbi, took a look, I think it's just a simple matter of changing the settings on your phone for your camera app. It just looks a bit yellowish. You have a great site!

    I really need to fiddle around more with my camera. Most of the time I'm in such a hurryh to try and finish my photo shoots that I just choose a setting that works for me and the food and just get a move on.

    Thanks for sharing this with us at FF this week ๐Ÿ™‚
