TOMATO HARVEST AND A TART

I managed to grow a heart!!!!!!
So many incredible tomatoes! I have been taking a colander out to the garden every day and filling it up!!! This is a small sample. We also planted some wonderful yellow cherry tomatoes that taste like candy!!!
This is the most incredible caramelized onion,tomato,goat cheese tart! It came out really great. Every recipe that I have tried of Ina Garten's(Barefoot Contessa) has been so easy to prepare and so delicious. I thought I would share the link for the recipe. It is so easy to put together and you can impress your guests!!! LOL....mine were loving every bite!

  1. There is nothing better than a home-grown tomato! The store version isn't even close. Enjoy your surplus while it lasts.

    The heart shaped tomato is too cute...maybe a sign that your garden loves you! :)

  8. Thanks for the comments! I had my gardener build a raised bed for me last fall and now I have loved going outside and picking these and then coming inside and making incredible salads, pasta's etc. I hope one of you at least makes this tart! It was so delicious and easy to make. I am not the biggest fan of goat cheese so I used Boursin cheese instead and it worked well. I would love to hear from someone who makes these tarts!

  9. Your tart is so mouth watering even in pictures! I will ask my sister to try. We have a series of food program by her on our food channel.

    Patty, you make me want to seriously consider some major overhaul in my garden. It's so expensive here :(.

    And that heart shaped tomato, are you ever going to eat it? :)

  12. Wonderful harvest, Patty :)) The tart looks scrumptious, thanks for sharing the recipe.

    My cherry tomato plant became diseased a month ago after a bountiful season; starting over...
