@Janice I love roasted tomatoes! They caramelize and get deliciously sweet. The tomatoes should be cooked until they are just cracked and bursting. They will sort of collapse and run a bit. If you cook them on baking sheet with parchment paper, the clean up is easy. I usually just pick up the parchment paper by the corners, and slide everything right into the pot.

Looks delish! I have never roasted cherry tomatoes. Do they pop in the oven and make a mess?
