Default Re: Favorite tomatoe recipes?

Fresh tomatoes with a little salt, fresh mozz, fresh basil and a drizzle of EVOO is a gift from God.
My next favorite raw veggie dish this time of year is:
chopped tomato
thin sliced and chopped fennel (stalks or bulb - I use a mandolin for the bulb)
minced red onion
coarse kosher salt
fresh lemon juice
Let sit at least an hour
I keep a very light touch with the salt and sometimes leave it out altogether and if you want to add pepper keep it light too. The three veggies and the lemon juice really make an amazing blend. Celery can make a good addition too.
