This is my favourite time of year for tomatoes. Especially cherry tomatoes! The only problem I have is there are soooo many! Aren’t we lucky. So to solve this challenge one of my recipes is this one. I can make a little, or alot. It freezes beautifully as well. Like so many recipes, simple is sometimes the best. This one doesn’t get much more simple than this. Because it is so fast you don’t have to worry about taking out the bitter seeds and I love the skins. It all breaks down so fast and delicious. I usually add a protein like sausages, mushrooms, or another veggie. Or just keep it basic and serve as a side dish. You decide.
