Juicing Tomatoes.. A Fun Family Activity

We have an abundant supply of cherry tomatoes from our garden. All of the cherry tomatoes are just volunteers from last year.  We couldn't eat them all  so we decided to  juice them on  our 9th wedding anniversary to make it more especial for us and the kids.

This type of activity is  what our Burritos  enjoys so much.  We all had fun doing it as a family.

The good thing about cherry tomatoes is it's juiciness.  It would be hard to ca can and peel them   individually because of their size but juicing them is  easier.  I love the pinkish-foamy bubbles of the juice.

One thing that I like about juicing tomatoes is the separation of the skin and  seeds from the juice.  You don't have to  deal with the seeds when you cook with it.

The ever supportive and fun loving Dad of the family.

We made 7 1/2 quarts of tomato juice.  We won't be drinking the juice  so I seasoned it with dried oregano,  basil,  salt, pepper, and a sugar.  

You might think that  this type of activity is boring but for us, it's fun and fulfilling.  Try  doing it with your kids and you might be surprised of how much  fun they get  in doing doing it.
