This recipe looks like a keeper. It’s not only economical and easy, but has layers of flavors (just a guess!).
I grow basil and tomatoes and make pesto, but never roasted my tomatoes. Thanks for the idea. This could be supper tonight.
Wow–this looks really delicious. It’s hard to believe that something this lovely would qualify for “eating on the cheap.” Your food photos really ARE beautiful–I can see why they’d end up on food po_n sites!
Okay this sounds like the PERFECT summer~time dinner. Bookmarking now and can’t wait to try this! Have a great day!!!
O.K. girls, I’m all caught up and can I tell you-I feel so refreshed and happy after reading all the posts.
LOVE this blog.
