Boring, flavorless tomatoes turn to into rich, tasty ones after an hour in the oven.
Once again, I'm impatient, so many recipes I found on the internet suggested you bake for 2-3 hours. These were baked for 1 hour-ish and were very yummy. I made a larger batch and turned half of them into a sauce for a Ravioli Lasagna (recipe to come).
Slow Roasted Tomatoes
1 pint cherry tomatoes
olive oil
salt/pepper
jarred garlic
fresh rosemary
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
- Cut tomatoes in half and place in a bowl. Drizzle with oil. Salt and pepper to taste. Add 1-2 spoonfuls of garlic and 1-2 sprigs of rosemary. Mix.
- Place on a parchment lined, rimmed baking sheet cut side up.
- Bake for 1-3 hours, depending on how much time you have to spend and how dry you want your tomatoes.
- Enjoy!!
Another of my veggie loves is kale. I usually saute it with some garlic and add vinegar at the end, yum! In this particular batch I decided to utilize my oven again. I must be cold or something since I am really enjoying having the oven on. Also, on a side note, I am always amazed at how much kale cooks down!
Big 'ol bunch of kale, roasted in the oven turns into crispy chips!
Kale Chips
1 bunch kale
olive oil
salt/pepper
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees
- Remove kale from stems and tear into pieces. Drizzle with olive oil (or spray with olive oil cooking spray) and add salt/pepper to taste - Remember that the kale will shrink so add less salt than you think you need.
- Spread into a single layer on a lined baking pan (or two) and cook for 20 minutes, turning half way through.
