Tomatoes
You know a tomato is big when you can eat it for lunch, supper, and breakfast the next morning. We'll this guy sure was big. 2 1/2 pounds, and yes it was actually one tomato it just grew a little strange! If the tomatoes on the vines are all this big we are gonna need some help eating them. I hope Bounty of the Barrens Market goers are hungry for tomatoes. My favorite way to eat a tomato is for breakfast covered in white gravy, but I also love them on a blolgna sandwich, and they are really good plain with a little salt on top. I also have a good tomato pasta salad recipe. Now I like my tomato peeled and that seems to be a big debate around here. Do we peel the tomato or not? My husband likes his cucumbers peeled which never crossed my mind untill we were married. So in our house tomatoes and cucumbers both get peeled in the name of compromise.
Tomato Cucumber Pasta
2 extra large tomatoes chopped
2 cucumbers chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
1/8 cup balsamic vineger
1tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1tsp garlic
1tsp oregano
2 cups cooked pasta (I use a veggie tricolor my kiddos call it wacky noodles or worms)
Combine all in a large bowl and toss
Grate a little Aged Cheddar Kenny's Farmhouse Cheese over the top
enjoy
