Cooking Tips –

Although this recipe is super simple to make, we do have some great tips for you to ensure that you are successful! I like to cook the confit over low heat and stir frequently to ensure the tomatoes slowly break down.  Because I love their flavor, I recommend using Cloud 9® Bite-Sized Fruity Tomatoes as they are the perfect size for breaking down easily in the confit while also leaving some texture.  If the cheese is melted but not quite golden yet, you can switch the broiler on and watch closely for 1-2 minutes!

This is a great recipe to enjoy any time and is sure to look impressive on your table. People will think you spent hours in the kitchen preparing the appealing dish and won’t believe how simple it really is! Plus the ease of making everything in one pan means less time is needed for clean up!
