In our family, my husband is the gardener/farmer and I’m the harvester and cook (except when it comes to PIZZA).
Here’s a picture of him from this past Memorial Day with a BBQ pizza he made on our Weber grill and Emile Henry Pizza Stone.
We used Beyond Meat’s Chicken-Free Strips – Grilled and were quite surprised by the flavor. Another vegetarian friend said
it tasted a little too much like chicken.

Back to tomatoes….All of the lovely rain and the glimpses of a hot summer to come have made our tomato plants thrive. We have Sweet 100 cherry, Juliette (it a is cute small Roma like tomato), Sungold, Patio, Lemonboy, Purple Cherokee, Better Boy, and Early Girl.
We are weighing our harvests and already have over 7 lbs so far of the cherry, Juliette and Patio.
If you are having a cherry tomato explosion and don’t feel like canning or just eating them in salads, this is a great way to use them.
Oven roasted tomatoes make a great side dish, are awesome on pizza and in hot sandwiches, on fresh bread, and in pasta.
