A simple favorite of mine is a tomato sandwich with tomatoes straight from the garden. It is quick and easy to prep. And it is something I think everyone enjoys.
I will often serve this with something like a fresh peach. Light supper, I know, but in hot weather, I have less appetite.
You might wonder what makes this sandwich the best. Easily enough, that is the basil and Parmesan cheese which is added. It really rounds out the flavors. I get my basil from the garden too.
Too bad I don’t have a cow, or I’d try to make my own cheese. In a perfect world.
In an imperfect world, I’d spend altogether too much time cleaning up after a cow. Nothing’s perfect. Except maybe the sandwich. Is there really anything more satisfying than a simple tomato sandwich?
