End of Summer Tomatoes IV


These delicious small tomatoes are plentiful right now, and so wonderful when enhanced with other flavors:

Grape or Cherry Tomato Lunch Delight

Halve two cups of fresh grape or cherry tomatoes, place in large glass bowl, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sea salt.

Add ½ teaspoon spicy mustard, 1/4 teaspoon horseradish, 1 small clove pressed garlic, freshly ground pepper to taste, 1/4 cup of pitted calamata olives, 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise and lightly toss.

Add 1 large can of white albacore chunk tuna packed in water (drained of liquid), toss with large salad fork just until mixed, sprinkle with parmesan or romano cheese, and use as topping for greens, (fresh mustard greens are great) pasta, or serve with carrot sticks, crisp flavored crackers or garlic bread.

This recipe works well with chicken or fish, fresh or canned.
