Chilled Tomato Soup with Cilantro-Yogurt Swirl
This fresh take on gazpacho—a chilled tomato soup—is spiked with chopped chipotle peppers, which add a deep, smoky heat to the dish. The cilantro-yogurt swirl balances the heat from the chiles and makes a beautiful garnish. Serve this soup as a starter for dinner on a warm summer evening..
Raw Tomato Sauce
In this raw sauce, tomatoes marinate in their own juices along with some fresh herbs, garlic, extra-virgin olive oil and red-wine vinegar. Diced fresh mozzarella absorbs the delicious flavors of the whole melange. Toss with hot or room-temperature pasta.
Tomato & Basil Finger Sandwiches
A smear of reduced-fat mayonnaise and a little fresh basil allow perfectly ripe tomatoes to shine.
Baked Parmesan Tomatoes
A sprinkle of Parmesan and a drizzle of olive oil transform tomatoes into the perfect side dish. Or try sandwiching them between slices of your favorite whole-wheat country bread.
Slow-Roasted Cherry Tomato Bruschetta
Roasting tomatoes brings out their inherent sweetness.
Chicken Tacos with Charred Tomatoes
Charring tomatoes in a hot, dry skillet makes them smoky and flavorful; in combination with fresh herbs and spices, they elevate this dish from “everyday” to “ta-da!” Serve the tacos with reduced-fat sour cream.
Caprese Salad
Summer-ripe tomatoes and fresh mozzarella need only a sprinkling of fresh herbs, salt and pepper to shine in this simple summer salad.
Fresh, sun-ripened tomatoes not only taste wonderful, offer a range of health benefits as well!
Forget ketchup and cans—summer has truly arrived when the ruby glow of vine-ripe tomatoes graces your garden and the shelves of your local farmers’ market or grocery store. Luscious, juicy tomatoes not only taste wonderful, but also offer a range of health benefits for everybody: an excellent source of vitamin C, plus vitamin A, potassium and fiber. Tomatoes are also high in lycopene, which works with other vitamins and minerals to aid in disease prevention. Research suggests that the combination of nutrients in tomatoes may help prevent cardiovascular disease and prostate cancer. And although cooked tomatoes have less vitamin C, their lycopene is more available and antioxidant activity is undiminished by cooking. This collection highlights recipes that showcase all the magnificent aspects of the amazing tomato in its cooked and raw forms.
