These are morsel’s of serious goodness!  I found myself eating them right off the baking sheet.  The first time I made these I used them in my Mediterranean Quiche which was delicious but these are good in anything, pasta, antipasto or a salad…

Winter Insalada Caprese

This Recipe is for Pearl Tomatoes or Roma Tomatoes, I like to use the baby heirlooms too they cook faster.  You can use any Tomato you just may need to adjust the cooking time

Core Tomatoes and cut in half, scoop the seeds out and place on a baking sheet with cut side up

Spread Olive Oil, Garlic, Thyme, Basil and Sea Salt over the Tomatoes.                           Bake and Enjoy!

Recipe: Makes about 2 Cups

• 12 Organic Pearl Tomatoes
• 6 Cloves of Garlic Minced
• 4 Teaspoons of Thyme (dry or fresh)
• 12-16 Fresh Basil leaves chopped finely
• 1/4 Cup Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 1 to 2 teaspoons of Sea Salt

Directions: Preheat oven to 325 F put on the middle shelf and bake for approximately 45-55 min depending on the size of the Tomato, the Tomatoes will start to look a little shriveled up.  Turn oven up to 400 F for 20 min to caramelize the Tomatoes.  Keep an eye on them so they don’t burn although a little brown is okay and they will have the roasted sweetness that gives these tomatoes the yummiest flavor!
