Oven-Dried Tomatoes

The next best thing to homemade sundried tomatoes! The only trick is to have the time to forget about them in a very low oven for a few hours. They are wonderful as appetizers with a little goat cheese sprinkled on them, or simply naked, as a side dish.

  2. Rinse and dry the tomatoes and cut in half around the middle.
  3. Lay the tomatoes cut-side up in a single layer on a baking sheet.
