Balsamic Roasted Summer Bliss, I Mean, Tomatoes
August 22, 2012 in Dinner, Recipes, Snacks, Vegetables
I love Summer. I also love Autumn, Winter and Spring. However, Summer has the distinction on outdoors farmer’s markets and gardens (for those lucky enough to have acquired a green thumb…not me). The farmer’s market in Missoula is the best I have seen. It is teeming with fresh, local, organic fruits and veggies. My favorite picks this weekend were perfect tomatoes and fresh huckleberries. I’ll share the huckleberry goodness with you soon. Today, I share my super easy, vibrant Balsamic Roasted Tomatoes with you.

Notes
These tomatoes are wonderful tossed with fresh, hot pasta.
Be good sweet readers. But not too good! That’s boring ;)
This sounds so simple and so amazing. I love balsamic vinegar on tomatoes and roasting them would make it all even more flavorful. Great idea!
These look great! I want to make them and pile them on crostini.
Dear Carrie – So glad I stumbled upon your blog. Right you are! Those balsamic tomatoes should be in all our refrigerators :) Eager to make these soon before summer tomatoes are done for the season.
