Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 Tbs olive oil
  • 1 Tbs balsamic vinegar + extra for garnish
  • 1 tsp garlic minced
  • 2 Tbs fresh basil chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh parmesan cheese shredded
  • salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 450℉
  2. Wash tomatoes and cut in half
  3. Add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, basil, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper to a large bowl. Toss tomato halves in mixture and coat
  4. Add tomatoes to a greased baking dish and roast for 15 minutes
  5. Drizzle a little extra balsamic over the top if desired

Notes

  • A great way to save on cleanup - if you're baking your entry at the same time, create a foil "Wall" and place it between the tomatoes and other food.  You'll only have one dish to wash
  • If you don't have cherry tomatoes, take 2 or three small tomatoes and cut them into wedges then follow the instructions above
