TOMATOES WITH ONIONS AND GARLIC

A couple of days ago I was looking for something to make to use up some tomatoes I had.  No use letting them go bad when I spent so much money for them.  I was reading a cookbook I had gotten out of the library when I came up with this idea.  Oh the inspiration I get to create my own dishes while reading recipes.

TOMATOES WITH ONIONS AND GARLIC

Cherry tomatoes cut in half
1 small onion, chopped
2 clove garlic minced
Olive oil
Dried basil
Salt and pepper

Put about 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.  Add the cherry tomatoes and cook until juices are released (about 2 minutes).  Add the onion, garlic and basil and cook until onion is just transparent.  Remove from heat and add salt and pepper to taste.

You can make as much or as little as you want.  I am thinking it would work with chopped up slicing or beefsteak tomatoes also.  I'm going to try it the next time I make it.
