How to Roast Cherry Tomatoes

Cherry tomatoes may be small, but they pack a lot of flavor. The juices inside burst when you bite into them. But if you've seen one too many lonely cherry tomatoes sitting on the side of your salad, try roasting them. The recipe is easy.

Things You'll Need

• Baking sheet
• Foil
• Non-stick spray
• Salt
• Olive oil
• Cherry tomatoes

Instructions

1. Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees.

2. Spread the foil over your baking sheet. This will protect the juices from cherry tomatoes from burning your pan.

3. Spray the foil with non-stick spray.

4. Give your tomatoes a quick wash and a pat dry to be certain they are clean before roasting. Arrange them on your baking sheet.

5. Drizzle olive oil over the cherry tomatoes. Then sprinkle with a few pinches of salt.

6. Place in the oven and roast for 10 minutes. When the tomatoes collapse, or lose their shape, they're done.

Tips & Warnings

• For a twist on a salad, roast different kinds of vegetables and then serve on a bed of mixed greens.
