Before deciding what to make with this fresh produce, I made a basil bouquet: the smell was intoxicating!
As much as I was tempted to simply eat the tomatoes on their own, I decided to make a quick salad. This really doesn't require a recipe: you simply cut a few ingredients, season with pepper and drizzle with olive oil.
Ingredients: cherry tomatoes (halved), olives (quartered), red onion (thinly sliced), basil (thinly sliced), olive oil, black pepper (there is no need for salt because of the olives).
Doesn't this salad remind you of the toppings you could put on pizza? The only thing missing is fresh mozzarella!
Just bought some ' tiger' tomatoes to make something similar this evening!!

ReplyDeleteThese photos are spectacular. Your "salad" looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteIf not mozzarella, then feta! This looks really fresh and light.
ReplyDeleteTomatoes here in North Florida are pretty much passed their peak. Our tomato plants are drooping and looking pretty sad this time of year.
I'm jealous of all of those fresh veggies! Fresh mozzarella would be perfect!
ReplyDeleteI think people should start giving herb bouquets instead of just flower bouquets all the time. =) Your salad looks delicious!!
ReplyDeleteThese pictures look amazing! I had the same thing for dinner a few nights ago.
