In Denial, Tomato On Grilled Baguette

Our tomato plants are some serious fighters this year.  Somehow, we’ve managed to pick a couple handfuls of Sun Gold cherries a week for the last few weeks.  In the back, those two beauties are courtesy of Whole Foods.   They appear to be some type of red zebra tomato or Pink Berkeley Tie Dye… maybe.  The outside was a deep pink with golden yellow stripes.  Inside, they were deep, dark red.  And, they were so incredibly delicious.  They were equally sweet and savory with a pure tomato flavor.  We loved the spicy bite of basil next to the super sweetness of these tomatoes.

It ain’t over til it’s over!

Tomato On Baguette
makes 1

6″ wedge of baguette
1 tomato
Thai basil leaves

Lightly grill baguette.  Brush lightly with mayo.  Top with basil leaves and thick tomato slices.

In our house, there’s no such thing as tomato scraps.  We devour each and every last bite.
