In our family when the last fresh tomatoes are eaten in the fall we “Fast” until the next spring when the first tomatoes ripen. Of course we have the occasional fresh tomato, but it is not standard fare at our house in the winter. I usually process lots of tomatoes and for making soup, spaghetti sauce and salsa all winter, but oh what a delight to our taste buds when we have the first tomatoes of the season. For now they are small cherries but very soon we will have those luscious slabs of tomato on a piece of toast and summer will really be here!
Have a wonderful week!!
