Introduction: Multiple Tomato Slicer
Simple way to slice a few grape tomatoes all at once.
Step 1:
Get two lids that are the same size. I just used two from some old chinese take-out. The lids can be bigger or smaller than the ones I used, it just depends on how many grape tomatoes you're trying to cram onto them and slice all at once.
Step 2:
Find a good, sharp knife (serrated knives work best) to slice through the tomatoes.
Step 3:
Squeeze as many tomatoes as you can onto one lid and then place the other lid on top of them.
Step 4:
Take that serrated knife you grabbed and, while placing one hand on top of the lids and tomatoes, slice on through those red ovals.
Step 5:
Tada! You just cut your cooking time in half now that you don't have to slice each tiny tomato separately!

I've been trying to think of a way to slice multiple little tomatoes in one go for a LONG time. Will try this way soon. This is Brilliant. :)
For some recipes, I'd really like to slice them the other direction. Any ideas, anyone?

This is a great idea, and it's going to save me a lot of time next summer. Always hated the time it took to slice them one by one.

Ingenious. Just watch the fingers when slicing across.
