Directions
Grape Tomatoes With Onion, Bacon and Sage,Once a year there comes a time when certain fresh produce is available in abundance. At the moment all kinds of tomatoes are seductive in their beauty and variety! I bought a bag of the small, sweet grape tomatoes and had to find a use for them other than in salads! This simple side dish is especially nice with a roast chicken rubbed with a hot sauce, with baby potatoes roasted alongside. Use lots of dried basil in this recipe if fresh sage is not available. Fresh basil is a little too sensitive to heat and lose its fragrance when heated.,This is a brilliant recipe for small tomatoes. I made half a batch using heirloom tomatoes, hence the golden colour. All I can say is oh yum, oh yum, oh yum! Thank goodness my cherry tomato plants are beginning to produce some fruit because I know how I’ll be using them. Thanks so very much for posting.
