Wow, been a long time

Wow, it’s been a long time but I am going to try to stop in now and again. Here is a recipe I made today from Cooking Light to go with Parmesan Buffalo Burgers

Balsamic Ketchup

1 Tbls olive oil

3/8 tsp salt

2 lbs small tomatoes, halved

3 Tbls fresh basil

2 tsp Balsamic vinegar (I used 1 tsp balsamic reduction)

1/2 tsp sugar

1/4 tsp ground red pepper

Preheat oven to 325 degrees

Combine oil, salt and tomatoes in large bowl. Toss gently to coat. Arrange tomatoes, skin side down, on a rack set inside a shallow pan. Bake for 3 hours. ( I baked them on a sheet of foil sprayed with canola oil)

Combine tomatoes, basil, and remaining ingredients in a food processor until smooth.

Refrigerate in an air tight container, up to a week.

NOTES: I only roasted the tomatoes for 2 hours and pressed them through a sieve before pureeing them. It was a little thin, I think from the shortened drying time.
