3 Easy Recipes to Make with Your Tomato Harvest

July 27, 2022 By Elizabeth 10 Comments

By now your garden is groaning with a bevy of vegetables, including tomatoes. Here are 3 easy recipes to make with your garden tomatoes that you can eat as is or use in other dishes.

You might be tired of BLTs’, tomatoes pies and salads. Perhaps you are looking for an alternative to putting up canned tomatoes? Or just looking to try something new. Today I am sharing 3 of my favorite tomato recipes that I think you will like too!

3 Recipe to Make with Your Garden Tomatoes

3 Easy Recipes to Make with Your Tomato Harvest Marinated-tomatoes-basil in a jar with a galvanized bucket of tomatoes behind it

Marinated Cherry Tomatoes with Fresh Garden Herbs, garlic, onions and cherry tomatoes smothered in homemade vinaigrette.

These tomatoes are delicious on their own, added to a salad, or served with a steak, mixed in with a vegetable dip or even used on a pizza. The possibilities are endless. They also make a thoughtful hostess gift.

Easy Pan Roasted Tomatoes with Garden Herbs, this is my favorite “recipe” to make in the summer. If my tomato harvest isn’t that plentiful I head to the farmers marked to get a variety of tomatoes so that I can make at least 5 sheet pans of these tomatoes. The best part about this recipe is that from these tomatoes you can make soup, pasta sauce, simmering sauce and so much more. You simply make a few batches, let them cool, place them in plastic bags and freeze them until you are ready to make your family favorites. In the middle of winter as you sit over your bowl of steaming soup you will remember making these.

3 recipes using garden tomatoes two glass jars filled with cherry tomatoes

Pickled Tomatoes, are perfect on your salads, charcuterie boards, on sandwiches or just eaten plain like you would your other pickled vegetables. Like the marinated tomatoes a jar of these colorful tomatoes are a great hostess gift or to share with your family, friends and neighbors. Pair them with your favorite cheese and a loaf of bread, place in a basket with wine and voila, instant gift or the perfect picnic. Add a jar of homemade Balsamic Glaze too, it is so easy to make and much better than store bought!

Tell me, how do you enjoy eating your tomatoes? Do you can as well? Or do you preserve your tomatoes for winter in another way?

    Elizabeth, your tomato photos are stunning! I had a rather big crop this year (already harvested in Phoenix, AZ) and thank you for some new recipes. I make sauce, roast them, but I’ve never pickled them! Thanks for sharing. In August, I buy another 60 lbs. and make sauce for the year. Nothing better than summer tomatoes in the middle of winter!

      Mary, I could not agree more. It is so nice to have homemade sauces in the winter made from the hard work of summer!

    I live in Texas. We usually have a vegetable and herb garden. But alas! The extreme heat has fried our gardens! We even put shade cloth over it and used soaker hoses to water. Our blackberry vines barely produced this year. Fortunately, our cherry tomatoes are hanging in there so we still enjoy salads. Hoping for relief next year!

      Marcia I am so sorry to hear this! It is a challenge to have a garden at the best of times but in times of severe weather it is almost impossible. I cannot even imagine what it must be like to have to live off what you grow, thankful I do not have to.
      I hope that you enjoy your cherry tomatoes!

    I love fresh slice tomatoes. Had them all summer growing up. I didn’t grow any veggies this year.

      Brenda, tomato slices are one of my favorites. The good news is that you can grow all sorts next year. Hope you are feeling better.

    My mother would put tomatoes in the basement deep freezer. And when she wanted to make soup or sauce out would come a bag.
