If you have ever grown tomatoes in your garden, you know that they can produce a lot of fruit, and if you are like most people, you probably don't eat all of those delicious tomatoes while they are fresh. So, what do you do with the leftovers? Here are some ideas for using up those leftover tomatoes!
One of the easiest ways to use up leftover tomatoes is to make roasted tomatoes. Roasted tomatoes are a great addition to salads, pasta dishes, or on their own as a side dish and are widely used by professional chefs in their men’s and women’s chef shirts or unisex work shirts. To roast your tomatoes, simply slice them in half and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in a preheated oven at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes.
Another way to use up leftover tomatoes is to make tomato soup. Tomato soup is easy to make and can be frozen for later. To make tomato soup, simply sauté some onions and garlic in a bit of olive oil. Add your roasted tomatoes and enough chicken or vegetable stock to cover the tomatoes. Bring the soup to a boil and then let it simmer for about 15 minutes. Puree the soup in a blender or food processor and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with some crusty bread on the side.
Another great way to use up leftover tomatoes is to make bruschetta. Bruschetta is a classic Italian appetizer that is easy to make and is always a hit at parties. To make bruschetta, simply slice some baguette bread into thin slices and toast in the oven. Once the bread is toasted, top with a spoonful of tomato sauce and some shredded mozzarella cheese. Broil the bruschetta in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve immediately.
These are just a few ideas for what you can do with leftover tomatoes. So, next time you have some leftover tomatoes, don't throw them out! Use them up in one of these delicious recipes, and don’t forget to wear your protective denim apron with pockets to avoid getting stains on your clothing.
