Tomatoes, Zucchini, Basil (extra produce)….Oh My!

That’s the recipe I go by too! I layer everything on a bed of greens and add the prosciutto. The dressing is so yummy!

Thank you! It is a super vegetable! :slight_smile:

A chef friend makes these in quantity (usually with sausage) and freezes them. They are a very easy reheat when nobody feels like cooking.

This is a big favorite in my house–great way to use zucchini. Make sure to let the cut and salted zucchini sit for 15 minutes–otherwise you’ll have soggy zucchini. I also will add cherry tomatoes to this recipe.

I second this one! I tried it last year when you posted the recipe. It was a hit!! We have 3 more zucchini coming up… time to revisit the recipe! Thanks for the reminder!

OMG. My tomato jungle exploded with fruit! I was not happy with Oregon Spring variety because the fruit is small and not very juicy, but then remembered that my mom used to make raw tomato/horseradish sauce. Basically, throw some tomatoes in a food processor and puree. Mix in prepared horseradish if you don’t have a fresh root to grate, add grated garlic, then salt and pepper to taste, and this is a great zesty sauce to serve with eggs or as a ketchup substitute with potatoes! Also goes well with meat dishes.

I gotta love a unique condiment!

Here is a recipe. I don’t use one - go by taste. I use Beaver extra hot horseradish and add to the tomato base to taste. You can definitely vary the amounts of horseradish and garlic!
