Tomatoes and Onions

Tomatoes and onions are staples in my kitchen. I use them in almost everything...well, except cakes. But, one of my favorite recipes for tomatoes and onions is a roasted tomato and caramelized onion bruschetta.



It's an easy pairing of tomatoes, garlic, onions, olive oil and italian spices. You really can't go wrong. I roast everything in one pan in the oven and give the onions a 5 minute head start. Once they soften, I add the tomatoes (cut into strips and de-seeded). After everything becomes soft and fragrant, I add some minced garlic, a handful of fresh herbs and cubed mozzarella (optional, of course). This "bruschetta" is served on some toasted French bread and it is perfection.
