It’s really getting to be tomato time!
I’ve been making lots of pastas tossed with tomatoes and several varieties of tomato, basil, and mozzarella salad. Often I add whatever extra vegetables are around, and I’ve especially enjoyed adding lots of cucumber to these salads.
Sometimes I’ll even add garden “weeds” like the nutritional powerhouse purslane. It’s a great way to use up some of this hard-to-avoid garden guest.
But I think I just found a new favorite way to use up some tomatoes – in a tomato galette!
Instead of reinventing the wheel with this one, I’m just going to refer you to where I found it originally because it’s pretty perfect as is! The only changes I made were that I added garlic to the top and I didn’t exclusively stick to all cherry tomatoes — I just used what I needed to finish up in my tomato basket.
This recipe was so good it made Mr. LF make the comment that inspired the title: “This is absolutely amazing. This is what pizza wants to be.”
Plus, the Kitchen Vignettes blog where I found this is also amazing! She makes beautiful videos to go along with many of the recipes she posts. They’re really very inspiring.
So, to make your very own Tomato Galette, hop on over to Kitchen Vignettes.
I served this with a side of our favorite way to eat kale – in a Tuscan kale salad (yum!!).
How are you using up your garden’s tomatoes this year? Have you started making sauce yet?
