As I'm sure you know, this the perfect time of year to chow down on tomatoes.
So the other day, after picking up a bunch of ruby reds at my local green grocer, I turned to some kitchen staples to whip up a yummy little lunch.
I started by slicing the tomatoes pretty thick...
Before slathering them with pesto (
I used the homemade stuff from my freezer).
Once all the slices were coated and placed in my pretty polish pottery dish...
I sprinkled a generous portion of mozzarella cheese over the top.
To add a bit more flavor I also poured a dash of olive oil...
And balsamic vinaigrette as well!
What a pretty little dish, right? And it's so quick- less than 3 minutes from start to finish!
Oh- and did I mention that it's delicious?
But I didn't stop there. I had a leftover bit of baguette laying about, so I sliced it...
And filled it with my pesto/tomato salad (I even poured a little of the olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette onto the bread).
I borrowed a page from Martha (Stewart) and wrapped my sandwich in a bit of parchment- it was the perfect way to keep the baguette together...
While I chowed down!
Thank you for visiting- I hope you have a great Wednesday!
