Ingredients

Scale

4 medium Roma tomatoes (firm and ripe)
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
0.5 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and pat the Roma tomatoes dry, then slice them into uniform quarter-inch rounds.
Arrange the tomato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, combine the grated Parmesan, garlic powder, dried oregano, and kosher salt.
Sprinkle a generous tablespoon of the cheese mixture atop each tomato slice, ensuring it is spread toward the edges.
Bake for two hours or until the cheese is golden and the tomato edges appear shriveled and crispy.

Notes

Ensure tomatoes are firm to prevent them from becoming too mushy during the long dehydration period. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and re-crisp in the oven if necessary.
