Ingredients
The following ingredients have 1 Servings
- 1 pound tomatoes, halved lengthwise
- 1 Vidalia or sweet yellow onion, peeled and quartered
- 5 cloves small to medium toes of garlic, unpeeled
- About 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, divided
- Sprigs of fresh thyme
- Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees and cut up the tomatoe, placing into a large bowl.
- Add the onion, garlic cloves and sprigs of fresh thyme; drizzle with enough olive oil to coat, reserving some for later.

- Process to desired consistency, adding additional olive oil, if needed; taste and adjust salt and pepper.
