Q: Why did the tomato go out with a prune?
A: Because he couldn’t find a date.

Go ahead. Throw tomatoes at me.

I’ll use them in this super easy and fresh tasting Roasted Tomato Soup. Just roast some tomatoes with onion, garlic, oregano and basil. Purée the roasted vegetables in a food processor with some broth and that’s it. Soup’s On!
