Roasted Tomatoes

I love finding new recipes. 

Cookbooks are so fun, but its even better when you stop by a friends house for a few minutes and leave with a new idea for dinner! 

This happened when I stopped by my friend Lane's a few weeks ago.

Oven roasted tomatoes

Cut tomatoes (I take out some of the seeds)
Drizzle with oil, Italian seasoning and I even added a touch of sugar
Roast in a 250 degree oven for 1 1/2 hours or until you have the desired texture

That simple!

yet so delish!

I made chicken and roasted tomato pizza

Store bought crust, brushed with Olive oil and a little Italian dressing. Baked the crust.  Topped with chicken from the crock pot cooked in Italian dressing, the roasted tomatoes and mozzarella cheese, baked a few more minutes to melt the cheese. 

So easy!

Tommy paired this with a nice Italian wine and it was yummy!!!

If I knew how easy roasted tomatoes are I would have made them YEARS ago!

Hugs and happy recipes sharing with friends :)

Silly sidenote:  every time I go to type the word "Olive" I type "Olivia" and have to backspace.  :)
