too many tomatoes

Don't make the poor guy buy a jar to prove it!

Nyboy can whip out the 'ol cell phone and snap a pic in the store-he doesn't have to BUY one!

Years ago a neighbor had a huge garden but got sick just at the tomatoes were coming in. Mom sent me over to pick them and she spend days and days freezing up bags of just tomatoes cooked with a little salt & pepper. She said that they could season it and make it into whatever they wanted when they thawed it.

I've got a BUNCH of tomatoes coming in soon and I'm starting to get a little worried about them being all ready at once. I'm thinking that this might work for me since I use a LOT of canned diced and crushed tomatoes to cook with. Maybe I can get nearly through the winter without having to buy cans?????

Do you have a dehydrator?

I made oven dried tomatoes last year with a bunch of roma type tomatoes, split in half, took the jelly out, drizzled with EVOO, sprinkled with dried herbs and salt and baked at 200 until the right consistency. Then I let them cool and froze them in freezer bags. One batch I let go WAY too long and they were like char. LOL
