Baked Tomato Sauce Serves 6-8   12 medium to large firm ripe tomatoes Salt and Pepper to Taste 3-6 minced cloves garlic One-half cup chopped Parsley One-half cup olive oil Cut tomatoes in half width-wise and set in 9 x 13 baking dish cut side up. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Mix the garlic, olive oil and parsley and spread over tops of tomatoes. Bake in a 425 degree oven for 60-70 minutes or until lightly browned and reduced by half.  * Editors note: Instead of the fast way, I personally like to slow cook the tomatoes in a 350 oven for 3 hours.  Either way - it's wonderful.  Dish may be doubled or tripled or more. After the tomatoes have been baked in the oven, you can freeze the mixture in baggies or containers in desired serving amounts. Figure two tomatoes per person.
