Excellent recipe, except that part of the salt got diluted in the juices so it seemed the actual tomatoes needed a bit more salt, other than that.. delicious! I recommend serving with garlic bread to absorb the juices. Also, use parchment paper to line your baking dish and that way you can transfer the whole thing easily to your serving platter :)
