    Three Cheese Tomato Tart

    This recipe is basically a Southern spin on pizza (just add mayo.)  A flaky pie crust, a cheddar and mayonnaise blend, and juicy garden tomatoes.  Found on thekitchn.com food blog, this is one of those recipes that just takes you aback the first time you have a bite.  You just won’t believe how delicious (and easy) it is!

    Spaghetti Squash with Tomatoes and Basil

    Here’s another great spaghetti squash recipe from steamykitchen.com.  If you’re only feeding 4-6 people, I suggest cooking the spaghetti squash whole, then only using half of the squash when you’re ready to sauté with the tomatoes.  I like my spaghetti squash not too hard, not too soft. It shouldn’t be mushy, you should be able to still separate the strands of squash.  Serves 8-10.
