Dave's Quick Roasted Tomatoes

Before

• Cherry, roma, paste, or other tomatoes

• Olive oil

• A head of garlic (more if you like garlic)

• Salt to taste

• Cast iron skillet or oven proof pan

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Cover the bottom of your pan with whole cherry tomatoes or tomatoes sliced in half or quartered. Peel garlic cloves. Wedge whole garlic cloves in between tomatoes. Use as many cloves as you have or as you like garlic. Drizzle olive oil over tomatoes and garlic so that the tomatoes are shiney. Put pan in oven and roast for 10 - 20 min checking often. When the tomato skins start to blacken, it’s ready. Cool, pour into freezer proof containers leaving a little room at the top and freeze.

Use Dave’s Quick Roasted Tomatoes on toast, tossed with spaghetti, in chili or stew, wherever garlic and tomatoes would taste good.
