I got the idea for these tomatoes from a recipe I received in an email. I am not sure how I got the email, but I could have sworn the recipe came from Cook’s Country<\/a>, but when I searched for Caramel Tomatoes I got nothing. Anyways, the original recipe says to bake the tomatoes in the oven for a while and then cook them again on the stove. It was for some crazy legnth of time that I bet would have made the absolutely delicious, but I choose a much simpler route. I used little tomatoes (instead of big ones) and just cooked them for about 25 minutes in the toaster oven. They were still wow! We had them with <\/span>Humbodlt Fog cheese<\/a>, amazing cheese which you can get at whole foods.<\/span><\/p>\n
