Oven Roasted Cheery Tomatoes with Penne PastaDinner is served and won’t disappoint

Recently my husband (Steve) and I decided to incorporate some more Meditteranean dishes into our meal planning.  Therefore, we bought a few Meditteranean cookbooks.  Meditteranean dishes are said to be heart-healthy and since we’re getting older, we thought it might be good to eat some dishes that are just that,  heart-healthy.

After we got the cookbooks, we thumbed through them eager to see what we might find.  And we were excited to stumble upon this amazing recipe – Oven Roasted Tomatoes with Penne Pasta.  This will certainly beat any dish you’ll order in a restaurant.  Moreover, I’m guessing you’ll even consider adding this dish into your dinner rotation on a regular basis. Why?  Because it’s that good.  Yes, that good.

Serve with a salad or some french bread.  But most importantly, enjoy it.

Forkful of Oven Roasted Cherry Tomatoes and Pasta

How to make Roasted Cherry Tomatoes

  • Shallot, thinly sliced
  • Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • Cherry Tomatoes or Grape Tomatoes
  • Garlic Cloves, thinly sliced
  • Balsamic Vinegar
  • Sugar
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Pepper Flakes, optional

Place rack in middle of oven and heat to 350 degrees.

Toss a teaspoon of oil with shallot in a small bowl.  In a separate, larger bowl, toss tomatoes with remaining oil, garlic, sugar, vinegar, salt, pepper, and pepper flakes.  

Place the tomatoes and mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet and scatter the sliced shallot over the tomatoes.  Note: For easier clean-up, I lined the rimmed baking sheet with foil.  

Roast the tomatoes until the tomato skins begin to shrivel and shallot begins to brown.  Roast approximately 35 to 40 minutes. After that, let them cool 5 to 10 minutes.  Your oven-roasted tomatoes are officially done.
