I have to admit, I went a little bit crazy @ the farmers market today. I bought three pounds of heirloom tomatoes. Aren't they just gorgeous? Who could blame me for getting so many? However, my eyes are infamous for being bigger than my stomach, so I had some concern they might go bad before I got to them.
When I went into the kitchen, my eyes went directly to these colorful, juicy gems. I felt compelled to gorge on them. I didn't want to get into a big production, so I just decided to do a simple tomato salad.
This is a full serving for one or two side servings, so if you want to feed a small army, go hog wild and use as many tomatoes as you need!
These ingredients are to be used as a guide. I didn't put in any value amounts because different people like different herbs and spices. You can also experiment with different spices, if you like.
The recipe:
2 heirloom tomatoes, in slices or chunks
salt
black pepper
dried 0regano
granulated garlic powder
olive oil
Slice up the tomato into 1/2-inch slices, arranging one on top of the other in a diagonal pattern or cut into medium sized chunks. In a small bowl, add salt, pepper, oregano, garlic powder, and olive oil and whisk to combine. Drizzle the dressing over the tomatoes or toss together in a bowl.
Enjoy!
