Those summer tomatoes just
keep coming! Here are five of my favorite
go-to recipes that I have made over the years, but
especially this year with my lovely crops of heirloom tomatoes.
Roasted
Tomato Basil Soup is a recipe from Ina Garten and
is one of my family’s favorites, especially paired with grilled cheese
sandwiches. I make a big batch and freeze half for another time.
Stuffed
Artichokes remind
me of my grandmother who made a similar recipe, and wow, what a treat!
Alexis’
Chopped Vegetable Salad is
named for Martha Stewart’s daughter, Alexis. I make this salad during the
summer when it gets really hot out. It’s cool and refreshing, as well as
yummy and nutritious.
Salad Shirazi is a popular traditional Persian salad that originated the
city of Shiraz in Southern Iran. The main ingredients are chopped cucumber,
tomato, onion and a little lemon juice.
Spaghetti alla Checca is a quick and basic pasta
made with lots of fresh chopped tomatoes, garlic and basil.
If you try one of these recipes,
let me know what you think!
ciao!
