Default My Tomatoes are red!

Quarter them and sink them in frittata along with some sweet Italian sausage
and a solid later of basil leaves & shredded (not grated) Romano cheese
under the eggs. Slice into pizza-shape pieces. Drool.........

If the weather stays warm, maybe a day or two. Incidentally, they're a
little tangier when they're just shy of red, which makes them GREAT for
making a fresh tomato sauce. Sautee some garlic & onions very slowly

with
olive oil, until they're almost melting. Toss in a little white wine,

some
black pepper, some basil or rosemary, and then the halved tomatoes near

the
end, for maybe 5 minutes. Serve over linguine with some shrimp or slices

of
grilled chicken breast, or tuna. Throw in some green olives with the
tomatoes, if you like them. To die for.


soon as I clean the drool off my keyboard. teehee

I just happen to HAVE some angel hair, a prolific basil plant, and shrimp.
The garlic was getting a bit old so I stuck it in the garden. I have an
elephant garlic in there now, wondering if I can use some of the (HUGE)
leaves.

My first tomato plants ever (large cherry) which have grown out of

their
cage and taken over 4 square foot of my square foot garden (but i'm not
really complaining) are red. They were pinkish a few days ago. How

long
till I can pick and eat the little yummy buggers?
