Baked Tomatoes and Mozzarella

Read Reviews (4)

"This recipe takes any store bought, colorless tomato and makes it seem like the best vegetable you've ever tasted! Just takes a little extra time than most recipes." — Amy

Directions

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
Arrange tomato slices on prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle tomatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil; sprinkle lightly with sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
Bake the tomatoes in the preheated oven until they become leathery, a bit brown, and crunchy around the edges, approximately 2 hours. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
Combine the cooled roasted tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, basil, and roasted garlic in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the vinegar and the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil; mix well.

The flavour was fine, but the cooking time was way too long for my liking. I cranked the heat up to reduce the time.

I don't mind the 2 hr roasting time, but did find that I had a lot of cheese and dressing for the amount of tomato. The flavor is amazing.

The flavors are good, but I'm not sure the roasting of the tomatoes is really required. I think this would be fine with fresh tomatoes, maybe let them marinade for a while. I also thought it needed less dressing (or more tomatoes).

Takes some time to prepare and doesn't make a whole lot; but it is really good. A really winner in our home!
