Steps:
- For the balsamic vinaigrette: Combine the vinegar, mustard, honey and salt and pepper to taste. Stir with a whisk or fork, then drizzle in oil, whisking constantly, until combined.
- For the roasted tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with foil and spread out the tomatoes evenly to ensure a proper roast on each. Sprinkle the dried basil, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and Italian seasoning over the tomatoes, making certain that each tomato is well seasoned. Drizzle 1/4 cup vinaigrette over the tomatoes, making sure not to over-coat the tomatoes.
- Roast the tomatoes 45 minutes. (This is a fast roast, not an oven-dried tomato. Do not flip or shake the pan. The tomatoes will caramelize slightly on the top and the bottoms will remain juicy.) Turn the oven off and let sit in the oven 15 additional minutes.

This baked tomatoes recipe has been in our family for many years. My mother brought it with her when she came to the United States from Italy. When tomatoes are plentiful, this is a great way to serve them. -Mary Detzi, Wind Gap, Pennsylvania
