Roasting enhances the natural sweetness and the fresh flavor of the tomatoes, so enjoy this simple recipe for creating a delightful dish! I love using summer tomatoes to make these roasted cherry tomatoes and use them on my Garlic Roasted Tomato and Spinach Flatbread or my Tomato Sausage Omelet. 

Why this recipe works

The roasting process for these cherry tomatoes allows the sugars to get caramelized and have a concentrated flavor. So delicious on bruschetta or avocado toasts. They have less liquid after roasting and are a delicious way to add a burst of flavor to pasta dishes like my Tuscan Grilled Chicken Pasta, pizza, salads, and more!

Ingredients needed for roasted tomatoes

• Cherry tomatoes: any variety of fresh tomatoes work great even grape tomatoes.
• Garlic: Use fresh minced garlic cloves.
• Olive oil: I like to use extra virgin olive oil.
• Italian seasoning: You can use a mixture of dried herbs like rosemary, thyme and basil if you prefer.
• Sugar: Add a pinch of granulated sugar if your tomatoes aren’t sweet summer tomatoes.
