Project 365:: Day 256


Day 256 Keeping consistent with yesterday's kale chip recipe, I thought I would share one more. We went to a fabulous playdate barbecue on Saturday where I learned this tomato recipe. I had to test it out on Dale so for today's dinner we had tomato and cream cheese bruschetta and an arugula pesto pasta. These tomatoes are out of this world and so easy to make!!!! Thanks Marisa!

Tomato and Cream Cheese Bruschetta

3 tomatoes, sliced
1/4 cup of european style butter (easier to find than you realize!)
1/3 cup of sugar
salt and pepper to taste

1.) Over medium heat melt the butter. When the butter just begins to sizzle add your tomatoes in a single layer. Add half of your sugar, salt and pepper and saute for 4-5 minutes.

2.) Flip the tomatoes gently and add the rest of your sugar, salt and pepper and fry for another 4 minutes until the tomatoes start to break down and your kitchen smells amazing.

3.) Option One: Serve tomatoes in over a brick of cream cheese and sliced baguette.
Option Two: Slice baguette and bake slices at 350 degrees for 7 minutes. Spread the cream cheese on your slices and put under the broiler for 3 minutes (just until it starts to get bubbly!). Spread your baguette slices on a plate and top with your tomato goodness.

***All in all this recipe took me no more than 20 minutes and Dale and I cleaned the plate. It was the perfect beginning to our meal.
