This was was one of tonight's side dishes - Sauteed Cherry Tomatoes. I found these gorgous yellow grape tomatoes at the market the other day and had to have them.
I found this recipe in Only in California, a community book that someone had sent me in a swap. It sounded simple to do on a night like tonight.
I served them with bbq-seasoned pork chops and some spicy hush puppies. So good.

NOTES : Risa's notes:
* I used a dried seasoning but the original called for several fresh herbs - 2 tbsp parsley, 2 tbsp fresh basil and 1 ts dried dill. I didn't have those so I used 1 tbsp fresh thyme and 1 tsp Tuscan Sunset which has basil in it.
** The orignal called for 2 baskets of cherry tomatoes. I made half the recipe and used grape tomatoes. Use what color you can get.
