Next year we are not going to plant 15 tomato plants! The main problem I think was that the soil did not get warm enough so they were not ripening. We had to pull all of them off a couple weeks ago due to a winter storm, most of which were completely green :( We have them in the linen closet, the pantry and the oven...and on a couple of the kitchen counters
Too many for us to eat, we decided to make sauce. Our 1st attempt was pretty good, it just took FOREVER! The tomatoes were so juicy it took over 3 hours to cook them down, I think we ate dinner that night at 11:30pm. Our 2nd attempt went better, but we have not had any of it yet, that went into a lasagna that we will eat later :)

Good lord. That is a ton of tomatoes.
You need to invite everyone over to drink beer and have a canning party. Make spaghetti sauce and salsa. Seal them up and send everyone home with some. Also fry up some fried green tomatoes while your sauce is simmering away.
I will take some tomatoes off your hands! Especially considering the fact that we forgot to pick ours before the storm and lost the last batch :-(
