More tomatoes

But not a tomato picture...since I've been pretty bad with the food photography lately.  More time spent just wanting to sit down and eat then taking pictures of the food.  So instead a picture of the dog, since I've been having fun playing with B&W photography again.

As for the tomatoes...lucky enough to have more of the tomatoes fresh from the garden.  Tonight they were made into turkey burgers.
Cut about a cup of cherry tomatoes in half, in a non-stick pan over high heat cook them with a diced onion for about 3 minutes, then toss in 2 or 3 minced cloves of garlic.  Mix half the onion mixture with ground turkey, salt, pepper, thyme (or any other seasoning), a good splash of wine, and you can sneak some cheese into the center of the burger before making them into patties.  Cook for 30 seconds on one side, then flip and cook for 5 minutes, flip and cook for another 5 minutes.  Top with remaining onion mixture.  And you've got some tasty burgers thanks to the Splendid Table cookbook.

(The other tomato recipe...even easier, and just as tasty.  Seed then chop three tomatoes into 1/4 inch dice, coarsely chop a handful or two of pitted Kalamata olives, a good bit of fresh thyme, maybe 1/4 c of olive oil, 1 Tbsp of balsamic, toss onto pasta.  Done! And much happiness ensues if it is too hot to do any other type of cooking.)
