I'm not a huge fan of sun dried tomatoes, but these guys are great for salads, sauces or just munching on. I make them with the oven on, but if you've just finished using the oven, you can pop these guys in and let them dry as the oven cools. Use any fresh herb or combination of fresh herbs that you like. I grabbed some parsley and oregano from the backyard for this batch.
Oven Dried Tomatoes
1 pint cherry tomatoes
1/8 t salt
2 T chopped fresh herbs
Preheat Oven to 250*
Cut cherry tomatoes in half lengthwise and place in a pan. Spray with canola oil spray or drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and chopped herbs. Add tomatoes to the oven and let dry for two hours or until sufficiently shrivelled. Enjoy!
