Warm Tomatoes and Herbs
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ cup fresh basil leaves, washed and dried and torn into pieces
- ¼ cup fresh mint leaves, washed and dried and minced
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, cut in half
- 1 clove garlic, smashed
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
Instructions

Notes
Serves 4 Multicolored cherry tomatoes are especially lovely for this dish. We used these sweet golden cherry tomatoes from Teena's Pride. If you use small homegrown tomatoes, cut them into quarters.
