I could live on tomatoes. I don't know what is in those juicy, red, delicious things... but I love them. I recently started eating a simple salad made with tomatoes and Mozzarella cheese almost every day. It's somewhere in between my pasta salad and bruschetta. Simple and savory, it is a perfect "go-to" when you need a side dish in a hurry. I … Read More »
