Once I start harvesting all my summer tomatoes,
the challenge is to incorporate them in to almost
everything we eat!
One of my favorite summer tomato dishes is bruschetta.
It is quick and easy to make. Have it for a lunch with
a few slices of cheese, or make a whole platter
to serve at a party.
Toast baguette slices, until they are dark around the edges
and dry to the touch. They will absorb all the excess juice
from the tomatoes that way and still be crunchy.
Dice up the tomatoes you have on hand, add to a large bowl.
Drizzle with olive oil, add a bit of chopped fresh basil
and a light sprinkling of sea salt.
On a large plate or platter, lay out all your toasted baguette rounds.
Mound up your tomato mixture into the center of each round.
Now, pour yourself a nice glass of wine and enjoy that wonderful
"taste of summer"......home grown heirloom tomatoes!
As Always,
ENJOY!
