Best Roasted Cherry Tomato Recipes

Part of the reason we always grow cherry tomatoes in our garden is to eat them picked straight off the vine. But the other reason is to roast them in the oven. Because when you roast these tiny tomatoes, it makes their flavor even more intense.

How To Store Roasted Cherry Tomatoes

If you do decide to roast a sheet pan of cherry tomatoes, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 weeks.

You can also freeze them. Just put the tomatoes in a single layer on a wax paper-lined sheet pan or plate. Once the tomatoes are frozen, transfer them to an airtight container. Then try to use the tomatoes within 4-6 months.
