From reading blogs, I don't get the sense that most people are neutral to tomatoes.  I read about some who have a strong aversion to them and on the other side, those who absolutely relish eating them, in any form. I am one of the latter.  I add them to hot dishes and salads, like them plain and sliced.  Tomatoes are a favorite.

Balsamic Roasted Tomatoes

Above is Before Cooking

Ingredients:


4 tomatoes
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
dash of black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

Method:

Preheat oven at 425 degrees.
Line a baking sheet or pan with aluminum foil.
Slice tomatoes in half and place on pan, cut sides up.
Brush with balsamic vinegar.
Sprinkle with  pepper, sugar, parsley and basil
Roast for twenty minutes.
Serve warm.


This is a quick, easy and delicious recipe.  It makes a good last minute side dish when you don't want to fuss.   You can season it anyway you like.
