Recipe: Slow Cooker Stewed Tomatoes

Slow Cooker Stewed Tomatoes

Was inspired to make these by the fact that bags of tomatoes are so cheap at the market and a friend who had mentioned the concept.

Recipe:
Bag of ripe tomatoes
Basil
Onions

Cut out stems from tomatoes and briefly soak in boiling water (I just tossed the tomatoes into a big bowl and poured the boiled kettle water onto them)
Pull the skin off of the tomatoes (really easy after the quick soak in the hot water)
Toss in slow cooker
Add coarsely chopped up onion (optional)
Add basil (or other herbs you prefer)
Slow cook overnight
Mush up chunks with a fork and enjoy

I ate these over chicken and they were delicious.  You could also use as the base of other sauces but you must try it.  So easy and super tasty.  I can't recommend this enough.
