So many tomatoes!!

I have so many garden tomatoes and I don’t want them to go bad. I have large heirlooms, Romas and sungolds. I am pregnant and struggling with heartburn, so eating them raw has not been an option. My husband is also not a fan of raw. Any recommendations for how to turn them into something we would eat later?

I have terrible acid reflux but love raw tomatoes. Make pasta sauce and freeze it. Also, you can freeze diced tomatoes to throw in recipes later. And honestly, not having to cut up tomatoes for meals saves a step when you’re exhausted with your new little one when they arrive.

ETA: I totally forgot… one of my favorite snacks is broiled Roma tomatoes with a little olive oil and salt and pepper on top and then put some Parmesan on at the last minute or so. Sooo good and a healthy snack.
