Instructions
Roasted Tomatoes
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C).
- Step 2
Spread the cherry or grape tomatoes on a sheet pan. Scatter the garlic cloves, thyme sprigs, and oregano sprigs around the tomatoes. Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Toss with a wood spoon until the tomatoes are well-coated.
- Step 3
Roast for 35-40 minutes, until the tomatoes burst and are caramelized on the edges. Let the tomato mixture cool for a few minutes and then discard the garlic, thyme sprigs, and oregano sprigs.
Caprese Crostini
- Step 4
Set the broiler to HIGH. Line the crostini on a sheet pan.

Top each crostini with a slice of mozzarella. Broil the crostini until the cheese is melty, about 2-3 minutes.
- Step 6
Spread each toast with about 1 teaspoon of pesto and top with 2-3 tomatoes. Sprinkle the crostini with the fresh basil and finish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Enjoy!
