Fast Tomatoes With Basil and Balsamic
Description: If you love tomatoes like I do, then you may enjoy this recipe. It's a quick side dish/plate filler that doesn't have too many ingredients, it's healthy and tastes nice. Original recipe calls for Roma and Plum tomatoes but I use what is in season. This recipe comes from a book called "Purely Golden Door" by The Golden Door Health Retreats.
Ingredients:
- 6 roma tomatoes or 6 plum tomatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
- salt (to taste)
- black pepper, freshly cracked (to taste)
Steps:
- Preheat the oven at 180oC/350oF/Gas 4.
- Place tomatoes on oven tray with the cut side facing down.
- Dash over the balsamic vinegar, basil, salt, black pepper to taste.
- Bake for about 15 minutes for semi firm (still holding shape) and 30 minutes for well done (extra soft).
