Southern Tomato Sandwich
When garden tomatoes are at their juiciest, this classic eat-it-over-the-sink sandwich—with its mayo-gilded drips—is a must.

Pasta With 15-Minute Burst Cherry Tomato Sauce
Juicy and sweet cherry tomatoes burst open in warm olive oil, creating a luxuriously silky sauce that comes together in minutes.
The Best Summer Tomato Salad (It’s Better than Caprese)
This simple salad, made with thinly-sliced red onions, fresh herbs, and a drizzle of oil and vinegar, lets juicy summer tomatoes shine.
If You Have Eggs and Tomatoes, You Have Dinner
This light, easy Chinese dish is my ultimate comfort.
Honey-Roasted Cherry Tomatoes
I particularly like these gorgeously sweet and tangy, juicy and sticky tomatoes piled on toast with a sprinkling of flaky sea salt on top.
Tomato Tart With Puff Pastry
A savory layer of garlic, herb, and Parmesan-seasoned cream cheese makes it a fabulous appetizer or main dish for a light lunch.
Goat Cheese Stuffed Tomatoes
Creamy and bursting with flavor, these goat cheese-stuffed tomatoes are juicy and filled to the brim with velvety tangy cheese and the best crunchy breadcrumb topping.
No-Cook Summer Tomato Sauce
This incredibly simple tomato sauce is Chicago chef Tony Mantuano’s secret weapon in the summer. He marinates peak season tomatoes with olive oil, basil and shallots before spooning the over grilled fish or piling it on grilled bread.
Sweet Tomato Chutney
This basic onion tomato chutney is frugal, fresh, and packed with sweet, spicy (optional), tangy flavor with only 7 ingredients and in under an hour. Perfect for serving with snacks, burgers, sandwiches, pasta, and more.
