In addition to the wonderful tabouli, here is another way to enjoy
tomatoes:

Cut tomatoes into cubes or just plain bits, chop basil leaves, mince
garlic, combine with olive oil, add a bit of salt (pepper if you want),
and chill. Very refreshing. :-)


One way we like to serve home grown produce:
Slice tomatoes about 3/8" thick, place in single layer on platter.
Sprinkle on chopped fresh basil, finely diced red onion and a grind of
black pepper. Enjoy.
Don't try this with supermarket tomatoes, it won't work.

Ross.

Then there are always fresh tomato sandwiches.

Tomatoes sliced at least 1/4" thick placed on fresh bread with a little
salt and (for me) LOTS of Mayo.
