tomatoes for days

i have processed nearly ten flats

of these gorgeous tomatoes

from our csa, earthly delights farm

i core & chop the tomatoes,

then mix in some chopped onion, garlic,

salt, pepper, olive oil.

i roast them for hours.

first at 350°to get things cooking,

then turning down the heat to about 275°

for a s-l-o-w roast.

after the roasted tomato mixture has cooled,

i pour it into loaf pans & freeze

for gorgeous meals

{like this one} all winter long.

after they are frozen,

i remove the "bricks" from the pans.

i wrap them in parchment paper

and place them inside a plastic bag.
