What's the Best Way to Prepare Heirloom Tomatoes?
Nothing elaborate...just lightly dressed so you can enjoy all the yummy goodness - the sweet, intense tomato taste. Let them shine! Below is how we devoured the heirloom tomatoes from the farmers market.Day 1: Red heirloom tomato sliced 1/3 inch thick, drizzled with lemon vinaigrette, topped onto a bed of greens.
Day 2: Yellow heirloom tomato sliced 1/3 inch thick, sandwiched between cucumber slices for a contrast of texture and color, a few squeezes of lemon juice, sprinkled with lemon zest, drizzled with olive oil, and seasoned with salt & pepper.
I really wish I had the purple variety...they are sooooo good! Nevertheless, it was a good last hurray of summer.

I agree that simple is the best - my all time favorite way to eat heirloom tomatoes is in a caprese salad. I firmly believe that there is no better flavor combination than sweet tomato, creamy fresh mozzarella, spicy basil and earthy olive oil. Yum!!
Yup! Last time with the purple heirlooms, I had them with basil, mozzarella and balsamic vinaigrette. It was so good!
