I love a cooking challenge!

I bumped into this website–Cheerios and Lattes.  Each week MacKenzie has an Iron Mom Chef contest . . . this week’s ingredient is tomatoes.

Tomato Caprese

I make this a lot in the summer–I grow tomatoes and basil.

I cut the tomatoes almost all the way through and fill them with the mozzarella.  This particular cheese is pre-sliced–but normally I would have thinner slices of cheese.  I drizzle with olive oil and fresh ground pepper.

Be Blessed.  I find joy in all the seasons but . . . I love growing food in my garden, making it look beautiful and sharing a meal with my family (preferably outside).
