Some Delicious Uses for Cherry Tomatoes

Cherry tomatoes are probably the easiest thing to grow in the garden. They’re so forgiving and also giving!! We have been blessed with an abundance of Cherry Tomatoes again this summer and many of our plants are volunteers! They are also one of my favorite kinds of tomatoes because they’re so sweet and flavorful! I can’t bear the thought of any of them going to waste, so after I made my favorite recipe for Cheese Ravioli with Balsamic Tomatoes, I went looking for another recipe for these delightful veggies!

I found this recipe for Cherry Tomato Pasta. It’s reminiscent of the ravioli with tomatoes, but different enough to be a keeper! You just can’t go wrong with pasta and fresh tomatoes! It has a little kick from the red pepper flakes that you must add – it really bumps up the flavor!

I dove in before I got a picture, but when you make this, you’ll know why!

I made this as the main dish the first night, and the next night I used the leftovers as a side dish to the chicken I made.

If you have lots of tomatoes, you don’t need to just eat them with salad! I hope you’ll try these pasta recipes, but I also posted several other great recipes here. From soup to salsa, you’ll have lots of delicious ways to use tomatoes of all varieties! This Baked Salmon with Tomato Basil Bruschetta is so fresh and flavorful! Even if you don’t have them growing in your backyard, I’d encourage you to get your hands on some and try some of these fresh/flavorful recipes!
