The fruits of the Summer are becoming a dying breed, so I probably won't be seeing too many more of these gorgeous babies:
And so, for my last two deliciously juicy pints of local grape tomatoes of the Summer, I went for plain and simple:
I sliced the tomatoes in half, drizzled them with extra virgin olive oil, and sprinkled them liberally with salt, italian seasoning, (a bit of Sandwich Sprinkle by Penzeys), black pepper and crushed red pepper. I added to that four cloves of fresh garlic, squeezed through my garlic press and mixed gently.
By the time I boiled my whole wheat pasta, the flavors had combined nicely.
If only I had some fresh basil left... Maybe next time! ^_^
Say it ain't so! I went to the co-op yesterday and almost got some squash and then at the last second I saw the tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteLazysmurf, I should clarify... these were the last tomatoes from the Farmer's Market that happens to be RIGHT outside my store, on the university campus where I work. It was toooo convenient, so I am sad to see go for the year! :>
