You say tomato, I say here’s the best ways to eat ’em up.
Some people might like going to the pool, but for me summer is all about the tomatoes. Whether it’s tiny cherry varieties or big, beefy heirlooms, sun-warmed tomatoes are where dinner is at. (And breakfast and lunch.)
Since summer is fleeting, and so is the tomato crop, be sure to get your fill of these lycopene-powered beauties before back-to-school is here again. Try our top recipes for ultimate tomato enjoyment.
