Fire Roasted Cherry Tomatoes

Late blight has done in all of our tomato plants except one at this point - but that one, a Matt's Wild cherry tomato, is going strong and proving remarkably resistant. Plus the tomatoes are great!  Today I fire roasted some on the grill along with some of our very last Golden Sweet tomatoes, a sweet yellow grape tomato that was the second-to-last left. Try these on pizza, tossed with pasta, or on their own as a side dish. 

1 lb cherry or grape tomatoes (slice larger ones in half)

1 Tbsp olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Toss the tomatoes in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated. 

Fire up the grill. Place the tomatoes in a grill basket and grill over medium-high heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring 2-3 times over the course of the cooking. Remove from heat when tender and nicely browned in places.

Makes 1 1/2 - 2 cups.
