Notes: You can make these sweet, slightly chewy tomatoes up to 3 days ahead; cool, cover, and chill. Use them to dress up our Italian peppered beef stew, or place them on salads, sandwiches, or pizza.

How to Make It

Step 1

Arrange tomato slices in a single layer in pan. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Bake in a 200° regular or convection oven until tomatoes are dry but still pliable, 2 1/4 to 2 3/4 hours.
