Smokey Tomatoes

[thirdeye]

It's nearing the end of tomato season in Wyoming, a couple more weeks of cool nights and will be all over, so I thought I'd share a simple way to enjoy them. Smaller whole ones work, or if you have larger ones, just cut them in half. Add the tomatoes into foil pans, drizzle with oil and about any kind of seasoning. Italian herbs work good, and one batch I did this week I added some pesto then added cheese at the end. Tomatoes will pick up smoke real easily, so don't go too heavy. I'm thinking about cold smoking some and using them in a batch of salsa.

If you use muffin tins, you can add different seasonings in each cup. Sometimes I eat them as a side dish, or dump them over pasta.

Looks awesome, great idea. I always have a ton of extra toms. I dehydrate them and they turn out fantastic. They are a great winter snack when fresh toms are a long ways away.
