Help with overripe tomatoes

[Jkgourmet]

Yesterday's roasted tomato's from DH's garden, with my home grown rosemary and oregano. The garlic and olive oil are store bought.

Used 1/4 for a sauce for our tilapia dinner, the rest in freezer bags.

Yes, you get a lot of tomatoes ripen at once and sometimes a little overwhelming.

Roasted tomatoes, a pepper or two, lots of garlic cloves, sprigs of fresh oregano, basil and rosemary tossed with olive for twenty minutes or so in a 450' oven stirring here and there until juices start to dry, makes the best tomato soup. Blend cooled roasted veggies, add some water and a touch of milk or cream to your liking and voila, great tasting soup and so easy.

Also sautéed tomatoes, butter and lots of chopped garlic until almost a puree is very tasty and a great base on hand for many other dishes. Freezes well too.

Agree with another poster, just freeze whole tomatoes in freezer bags. Very convenient when you're tired of dealing with all the tomatoes at the end of harvest.
