Fresh in-season tomatoes are especially flavorful and delicious. During the summer months especially, I’m scooping them up everywhere, whether it be in my own garden, or from a friend, or a farmer’s market, or even the grocery store! As the weather turns to fall I have to quickly pick all my tomatoes before the freeze and I’m left with tons that I need to use up quickly! Here are some of my favorite recipes to make with those fresh tomatoes:
