Tis the season for growing tomatoes! And fresh herbs!

There are few things I enjoy eating more in the summer than fresh tomatoes from the garden.

Now is a tomato a fruit or a vegetable? That is the question of the day. I know they are botanically classified as a fruit, but they smell, look, taste, and are used like a vegetable, so that’s what they are in my book! 🙂

I enjoy adding tomatoes to several different dishes, but adding a fresh herb or two and healthy raw vinegar adds a unique twist for something different.
