Parmesan Roasted Campari Tomatoes

Summer is my favorite time of year, not just for the obvious reasons…I’m simply in love with the produce!!! With access to farmer’s markets galore, I cannot eat what I buy fast enough. Living in NJ, tomatoes are a wonderful part of our summer bounty. These Parmesan Roasted Campari Tomatoes are a tasty side dish, or great addition to pasta dishes or Caesar salads.

I like things spicy so I add red pepper flakes, if that’s not your taste preference, simply omit them. With only 62 calories per serving, you can certainly enjoy a few extra with no worries. If you have fresh basil around feel free to add some into the cheese mixture. Using Campari tomatoes is not critical, I like them because they are a perfect size and available in bulk at warehouse clubs.

In keeping with current dietary trends, this recipe is also gluten-free, low carb, keto-friendly and vegetarian to appeal to any family members or houseguests who are following specific dietary restrictions.

I love these tomatoes on top of grilled chicken or fish, as an accompaniment to tuna or chicken salad or smashed into a grilled veggie sandwich.
