Oh the thrill of the tomato

Sweet, sweet sun-dried tomatoes... these jewels of sweet taste are, well, so sweet!!!

They just need a little tending to before you can enjoy them in a meal. They are simple... bring water to boil, drop in the pieces of sun-dried tomatoes and let them hang out for about 30 minutes. Then they can be sliced and used in a dish of your liking. (Or you can let them sit in olive oil for up to 24 hours and use them the same.)







But don't toss the water - you can use it in a soup! (If you aren't going to use it right away, chuck it into the freezer.)





See how easy that was?! Tonight I'm going to use them in my recipe for Spicy Shrimp and Chicken! Oh yum...







More on this later... and you'll WANT to come back for this one!




enjoy your time in the kitchen...
