Summer is a great time for fresh tomatoes. Gee and I planted a few tomato plants in the back yard and they have grown out of control, but due to their lack of sunlight, they have produced more vines than fruit. I love fresh salsa, tomato sandwiches, tomato and cucumber salads and a myriad of other tomato dishes. In restaurants all over North Carolina you will find some form of an heirloom tomato plate, bruschetta or caprese salad. I had a dish at Watts Grocery that was a blend of all 3. Grilled sourdough bread, Heirloom Tomatoes, Local Goat Cheese and pea tendrils with a lemon vinaigrette. This was an excellent celebration of the tomato and another bullet point in the long list of reasons to go to Watts.
