Slow Roasted Tomatoes

Anyone who knows me has heard about “my good friend Deb.”  I get all my best recipes from her and back when I hosted dinner parties  (remember those days!), and someone would ask about how I made a meal, I would always say the recipe was from “my good friend Deb.” 

Deb, in fact, is a famous blogger and cookbook author.  You can check out her blog here – https://smittenkitchen.com/

I do not know Deb.  But I feel like I should.  Maybe one day she will move to Maine and we will become fast friends.  Or maybe life will take me to NYC and we will meet there?

Until then, I share with you one of my favorite recipes from “my good friend Deb.”  With peak tomato season happening right now, it is the time to make these roasted tomatoes.  Serve with cheese, on top of salad, over pasta, spread on a sandwich, you can’t go wrong.
