What would you do with a half a dozen not so great tomatoes?

[Lucinda]

They really need to be cooked in some fashion because they are very blah raw.

I've thought about fajitas and a cooked salsa...any other ideas?

1. age them

for 2 months and throw at conservatives.

3. That's my idea too.

2. Make panzanella. n/t

4. Roast them.

Or grill them. Either technique does amazing things for blah veggies. After you roast or grill them, then you can turn them into salsa or whatever. They'd be good with herbs, oil and a little vinegar in a salad dressing.

10. I second this

I vastly prefer tomatoes roasted!

5. stuff them with crumbs, parm, herbs and broil them

a wee drizzle of EVOO before they go in the oven.

6. Cook in stew/soup.

(Even tho its summer, works for tasty dinners.)

7. Toss them or give them to someone who doesn't care.

I've decided that life is too short to eat bad food.

8. That's the best idea of all

although I've been poor, so I'd probably just make a fresh salsa with them and load it up with hot peppers so nobody'd notice how bland the tomatoes were.

That's for early backyard tomatoes with little flavor. There is nothing to be done with California cardboard but aging them and heaving them at right wing blowhards.

9. I like your idea about aging them and aiming at appropriate targets.
