Question by RedBabe: What should I do with all my fresh tomatoes?
I have all these garden fresh tomatoes and will be making sauce later today. But I want some really different recipes and ideas for my tomatoes. Not the regular basil and olive oil or Italian type mozzerella and basil and tomato recipe. What do you do with your tomatoes?

I am a vegan so, the bacon is a big “no”, but I think it’d be good without
it.
This looks so easy and delish!! And Milo’s a cutie! Thank you!
Yes the flavors are amazing. It tastes so fresh doesn’t it? Have a great
day!
I needed this yesterday. <3
Wow, You have a nice backyard there robin, it complements your kitchen! And
milo is cool too!
OMG does that look great! So simple, but packed with taste.
Yes, it’s a wonderful dish, especially if you forget to take something for
dinner. We always have a few strips of bacon in the fridge, haha!
Tried this and it was very tasty!!!! Thanks for all that you do!!!
I agree! Give it a go and let me know if you liked it! Have a great day!
Ah! Thanks.
Great! Thanks for the testimonial!
These flavors work together very well. A lot like my grandmother’s
Amatriciana Sauce. We have replaced our much fattier Carbonara sauce with
it, and my husband actually prefers it. Thanks for sharing.
This pasta dish looks so amazing!! It´s on my Make Soon list. Thanks for

My mom just made Slow-roasted tomatoes. Mmm. You can use the spices you wish. Here is a recipe:http://www.theperfectpantry.com/2009/08/slowroasted-tomatoes.html
Preheat your oven to 200°F. Start with 5 pounds of tomatoes, either plum, or beefsteak, or yellow, or even cherry tomatoes or juliettes. Cut the tomatoes in half end-to-end, and place cut side up on a rimmed sheet pan. Chop 4 cloves of garlic, and sprinkle over the tomatoes. Strip several sprigs of fresh thyme, and sprinkle the leaves over the tomatoes. Season with coarse sea salt and fresh ground black pepper. Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil liberally over all of the tomatoes; you’ll want to save the oil for use in your cooking. Place in the oven for 10-12 hours*; the tomatoes will collapse, but not completely dry out. Pack into small ziploc bags or a freezeable container, and pour the oil from the pan over the top. (*Note: smaller tomatoes will take much less time, so check after 4-5 hours.) Can be frozen for up to one year.
These can be stored in the refrigerator for a couple of weeks (if covered with oil in the jar), or in the freezer for an entire winter. Slow-roasted tomatoes give you a taste of summer in hummus, soup, pasta, risotto, proscuitto, fontina and spinach panini, or a red onion and arugula tart.
Oven roast them for concentrated flavour:

My mom makes thunder cake. It calls for 1/3 cup of tomatoes, but you can add more if you want. The best part about the cake is that you don’t even taste the tomatoes!
