My sister placed 2 one-gallon bags of tomatoes in my freezer without my knowledge. They still have the skin and seeds but she did cut them in quarters. Grateful as I am, what can I do with them? Thank you.

Throw some into soups, stews, chili, or cook down all the tomatoes with some onions & garlic to make a pasta sauce.
if they do still have the skin they will float to the top while u cook.. just skim them off.. makes great soup and chili...
Use them as you would canned tomatoes. Let them thaw, and the skins squeeze right off! (Sooooo much less work than skinning before freezing!)
What about the seeds? Should the tomatoes go through a food mill to get rid of them?
I've been freezing a lot of tomatoes this year! Use them in any dish you'd normally use cooked/canned tomatoes, hot dish, soup, spaghetti sauce, etc. You can thaw them very easily in a dish with a little water in the microwave.
