I have been living a ridiculously tomatoey life, and love it.

I probably eat about 3 tomatoes a day. I cant help it. They are SO good. Between my plants, the CSA and my dads garden, I just really dont have a choice. Darn. Here is what Ive been doing with them. Mostly sammies, but some salads and stir fries as well.

Perfect makins for a perfect sammie: Fried sprouted bread (in BUTTER), counrty dijon, raw cheddar and a tomato.

Tomatoes with EVOO, pepper, basil.

Green zebras and yellow tomatoes on goat cheese.

More sammie awesome.

I think the goldies are my fave. A close second: striped german. YUMMY!!!

2. Add water very slowly until it holds form.

3. Press into tart shell and bake at 375F for about 30 min.

For filling

About 4 sliced tomatoes (I used lillians yellow and red slicers)

Tarragon, pepper and parmesan for garnish.

1. Slice tomatoes and set in strainer so extra juice flows out.

2. Spread goat cheese mix in bottom of tart shell, gently!

3. Top with tomatoes.
