Holy tomatoes batman! I’m drowning in them!
If you crazy kids follow me on Instagram, you know by now that I have a ever-growing pile of backyard tomatoes. Luckily, I’ve got a few ah-mazing recipes up my sleeve that are great for taking care of all that pretty plump produce. 
These slow roasted tomatoes are lightly seasoned but packed full of concentrated tomato-y flavor. You can use these tasty little gems in anything and everything from pasta, soups, risotto or smashed on toast with parmesan cheese.
Go easy on the salt and pepper as the flavors will intensify once they’re roasted. These fresh tasting tomatoes will let you cook with the flavor of summer, well into the winter.
