Notes
- You can also leave the cherry or grape tomatoes whole instead of cutting them in half.
- Fresh herbs, such as rosemary, oregano, or basil, can be added in after cooking if desired.
- You can also use larger tomatoes that have been cut into smaller pieces and increase the cooking time by 5-10 minutes.
- To Store: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. The tomatoes will begin to release even more juice as they sit in the refrigerator, thus naturally creating a really delicious sauce.
- To Freeze: Seal in a freezer-safe container for up to 4-6 months. After thawing and reheating they will have more of a sauce-like consistency.
