Roasted Tomatoes

Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • Vine-ripened grape tomatoes or Roma tomatoes

Instructions

  • The process: Halve and gently squeeze out seeds of the tomatoes. Place cut side down on a tray that has a lip.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper, a few cloves of garlic and some basil or rosemary; drizzle with olive oil and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until brown.
  • Remove the skin of the tomatoes and chill until you are ready to use them.
  • They can be stored in the refrigerator in its own juice; very tasty, can be used in many other dishes.
  • Will keep for 10 days.

Notes

The most flavorful tomatoes right now are the vine-ripened grape tomatoes; they are firm and full of flavor. The Roma tomatoes are traditionally used for roasting and are fine to use for this. Choose the one that suits you best. I roast a lot at a time and keep them in the fridge. Do whatever amount you need.

  • Add the salt, pepper and lemon juice.

Notes

This keeps well in the refrigerator.

Fruit Salad

Fruit Salad

Course Salad

Instructions

  • People love fruit salad. I have found that the smaller you cut the fruit the more they eat. I'm not sure why but it seems to work out that way.
  • The least amount of fruit will be eaten if you leave whole fruit in a bowl, apples, oranges, bananas and grapes.
  • You will need a moderate amount if you peel, slice and place on a platter melon, pineapple, and kiwi and arrange with strawberries and grapes.
  • You will need a lot of diced fruit salad.
  • The larger variety of fruit the more you will serve.
