heirloom tomato bruschetta

heirloom tomato bruschetta

in my last post i clearly professed my love for tomatoes - so there really is no need to go on about it here

straight forward bruschetta is the best

made prettier with yellow & not quite red, not quite pink tomatoes

as my cousin put it best the other night
"these totally taste like summer" -sam

and i couldn't agree with her more




heirloom tomato bruschetta

one of the best things using super fresh items is that you don't need many ingredients to make a truly outstanding food that your friends will rave about

above is my girl brandywine - she is the perfectly imperfect girl of the summer

her cracks and lines make her even more beautiful - telling her summer story to those willing to listen

some people have a fear of an imperfect tomato - they are so use to the perfect looking grocery store tomato

those people don't know what they are missing

    Oh my... your photos are simply gorgeous. One of my favorite things about summer time is a beautiful, fresh, juicy tomato. I, too, will be sad in a month or so when they aren't available in abundance. Thanks for sharing this!
