I’ve always liked tomatoes, but these tomatoes are irresistible! I’m feeling very Mary Poppins over here as I realize that just a spoonful of sugar has transformed my much-loved tomatoes into something altogether different!

I made these marinated tomatoes for the first time 11 years ago the day after Ree posted them. This recipe is adapted from and with thanks to Missy via The Pioneer Woman.

Marinated Tomatoes

I am sold on this flavor combination. I couldn’t stay out of them all afternoon as they were marinating on the counter and in the refrigerator. I kept telling myself I needed to stir them to make sure they were marinating just right. Somehow that wound up in a taste or two each time. Consider yourself warned, these are addicting.

These tomatoes are so delicious. I am already thinking about what I might do with the leftovers tomorrow. There is no way I’m letting all of these juices go to waste! Updated to add that I now use these tomatoes to make this pasta and both of these salads. Try marinated tomatoes on your next Grilled Cheese or Tortilla Pizza for a whole new flavor you’re certain to love. {originally published 7/20/11 – recipe notes and photos updated 6/1/22}
