AmyI loves me some fresh Summer tomatoes. So here is super easy extra delicious recipe to highlight the hell out of these bad boys! Nikita Last night, the family and I had dinner with some other family, and I was reminded of a time when I did not like tomatoes. The question came up, "And where did you grow up again?!" I know. I know. The South has some amazing agriculture and produce, but my household dinners growing up were primarily meat, potatoes, & corn. I do remember my parents making tomato sandwiches with Miracle Whip (not mayo). YUCK! It wasn't until I met Matt, and he said, "Just try it." It was a Wendy's cheeseburger fully loaded. I was hesitant because I was 18; I know what I like and don't like dammit! But I tried it....and I liked it. Then I started to crave it. We use to buy Wendy's burgers at midnight because it was close to our apartment. We'd come home and eat our burgers in bed watching Battlestar Galactica. Old memories! So much has changed. First - I don't eat anything at midnight because I'm 32 years old. Sleeping doesn't burn the calories like it used to do. Second - we don't eat anything in bed. Gross! Well maybe a bowl of ice cream here and there. Now I'm a changed woman, and I like tomatoes. We eat them every week in some kind of meal. Matt even eats grape tomatoes as a snack. Here is a Cucumber & Tomato Salad I made this week. Simple, Easy, and Clean Eating. Enjoy! GeorgiaI love tomatoes.. And that makes me the only one in our household who does. Since it's just me who likes them and they have a limited shelf life I really need to eat them quickly or.. Use up the rest to make sun dried tomatoes before they are completely spoiled. So I took a few each day to work and sliced the rest and put them in the dehydrator for about 8 hours. And now I can enjoy their tomatoey goodness for several more weeks. JenWe love tomatoes and I think I've eaten some every day this week, but I never got around to making something specific. See you all next week. :) Until next week,
Amy, Nikita, Georgia and Jen
