Great Ways to Use Up a Bounty of Tomatoes

By Erin Huffstetler, About.com

Blessed with a large crop of tomatoes, but not sure what to do with them? Here are several great ways to use up those tomatoes:

Ketchup

Get out your canning supplies, and make a batch of homemade ketchup to top your burgers and dogs.

Stewed Tomatoes

Stew some tomatoes for use in soups and other tomato-based dishes or enjoy a bowlful as is.

Tomato Juice

Turn a big pile of tomatoes into tomato juice, and you'll be set when soup season arrives.

Freeze Them

Freeze some tomatoes; and you'll never have to settle for flavorless, store-bought tomatoes during the winter.

Tomato Sauce

Homemade tomato sauce is easy to make and tastes so much better than the stuff you can get at the store.

Tomato Paste

Learn how to make your own tomato paste, and take it off of your grocery list for good.

Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Make your own sun-dried tomatoes, and skip the gourmet price tag.
