Easy Roasted Cherry Tomatoes
Easy Roasted Cherry Tomatoes are halved and mixed with garlic, Italian parsley, basil, olive oil, and a touch of balsamic vinegar for balanced flavor. Roasting concentrates their sweetness and softens them while the herbs add freshness. A touch of red chili flakes can add gentle heat. Finished with fresh basil and parsley garnish, these tomatoes can be served as a side, topping, or sauce component with pasta or bread.
