I have some great tomatos coming from my garden any suggestions for recipes?

Question

I have roma tomatos and big boys

Answer 1

try slicing up the tomatoes, layer them, use some basil and fresh mozzorella slices. drizzel with a little olive oil.

Answer 2

Make sauces (tomato sauce, salsa, marinara, etc.) with the romas and either freeze or bottle it.

Sandwiches (Tomatoe and Mayo, BLT, Club especially)
Tomato soup
Salt and pepper on a tomato still warm from picking it is THE BEST.

Answer 3

I like the tomato and mozzerella recipies above, but my favorite use is bruschetta.

Dice the tomatoes fine and chop finely some garlic and basil. Chill in a bowl with olive oil and salt. Serve with bread or toast.

I also love to put them in pasta salad, or antipasto salad, with artichoke hearts, kalamata olives, fresh parsley, sliced shallot, and mushrooms, seasoned with basalmic vinegar.

I don't generally cook tomatoes (I prefer them raw) but if you're really using them up, Alton Brown has a great tomato sauce recipe at www.foodtv.com .

Answer 4

Stuffed Tomatoes:
2 cans Italian tuna in olive oil, drained and flaked
1 can artichoke hearts in water, drained and chopped
2 ribs celery, chopped
1/2 medium red onion, chopped
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, a couple of handfuls, chopped
3 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley, a handful
1 lemon, zested and juiced
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Salt and pepper
6 vine ripe tomatoes, red, yellow, or mixed

For stuffed tomatoes, mix tuna and next 7 ingredients to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cut a thin slice off the bottom of each tomato to stabilize it. Seed and hollow out the tomato with a spoon over garbage bowl or into sink with disposal system. Season tomatoes with salt and pepper, then fill with salad, mounding the tuna up. The tomatoes are ready to serve or chill.

Here's one more:

4 ripe red tomatoes
House Seasoning, recipe follows
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano

Cut the tomatoes in half crosswise, season with House Seasoning. Heat the oil in a small frying pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, and cook until just starting to turn golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the garlic and oil into a heatproof bowl.
Oil the grill and set for high heat. Place the tomatoes cut side down and grill for 3 to 5 minutes. Turn over, top with the garlic oil mixture and continue to cook for another 3 minutes. Remove from grill and top with thyme, House Seasoning and Parmigiano-Reggiano. Serve immediately.


House Seasoning:
1 cup salt
1/4 cup black pepper
1/4 cup garlic powder
Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.

These are just a few you can go on this website to find what more of what you like best.

Get out your crock pot and food processor!

make salsa and spagetti sauce to freeze or can.

but for tonight:

add a box of hot cooked spagetti and toss. Yummy.

Answer 6

As a nice side dish, my family loves tomatoes cut into bite size pieces then add mozzarella cheese cut into bite size pieces and then pour your favorite italian dressing and toss. My husband likes it real fresh, but my kids like it after it's been in the frig for a few hours.

Another good side dish type dish is to cut your tomatoes into bite size pieces, add fresh basil and onion (you can add a little green pepper if you like also) and a little olive oil and toss over pasta or tortellini.

Good luck and God Bless.
