Slow Roasted Tomatoes with Feta
- Cherry tomatoes (or pieces of larger ones)
- Sprigs of thyme or rosemary
- Olive oil
- Feta Cheese

Preheat the oven to 120C. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and place in a large lined baking tray cut side up. Season with a little sea salt and fresh herbs.

Excellent as a salad, side dish or with your favourite pasta. ☺
