I adore tomatoes though home grown ones leave the store bought variety for dead.
...fresh, homegrown tomatoes can't be beat.
I love tomatoes! All these recipes look so good! Unfortunately my husband doesn't like tomatoes. He'll eat them chopped up in things but not as a main course. So I might have to make a small batch just for me. Thanks!
Yummy tomatoes!
Me gustan los tomates en ensaladas y pizzas. Te mando un beso.
Delicious! Love cherry tomatoes.
We can easily get quality tomatoes all year round though they taste the best in summer time.
The only fresh tomatoes I will eat in the winter are grape tomatoes. They taste summertime fresh all year long.
There's nothing quite like biting into a sweet cherry tomato. Roasted tomatoes are wonderful, too. They're not called love apples for nothing.
I love tomatoes. A top smell and taste experience is a sun warmed tomato fresh off the vine.
I thoroughly enjoy tomatoes too
Always have tomatoes the fruit in the house.
Tomatoes are such a versatile fruit. Or is it a vegetable? Let's not start that debate all over again. Tomatoes are such versatile things that taste good however you cook or eat them. There I said it.
(Thought - I must stop arguing with myself).
God bless, Jan.
I love tomatoes but they don't seem to have much taste in the winter.
Hello,
All they tomato dishes sound delicious.
I do love the salad, soup and the roasted tomatoes.
Take care, have a wonderful day!
Plenty of tomatoes eaten here all year round especially the small ones - they are so tasty. I like them roasted with anchovies onions and garlic, then add some sun-dried tomato sauce and balsamic vinegar. Eat with pasta topped with parmesan and fresh basil leaves - quick easy and very tasty.
Yum
They look delicious, the tomato dishes.
I'm currently buying dried tomatoes. These are my favorite to use now, they have a wonderful aroma.
A warm greeting to you and my very best wishes for you for the year 2024.

I love tomatoes, though it's hard to find a tasty on in Michigan in the winter -- the store ones taste like styrofoam! But I'm saving these recipes. (And the cherry/grape tomatoes are usually pretty decent.)
Those salads sure would brighten up the day. It's cloudy again today. I might have to go out and buy some cherry tomatoes and an avocado.
Happy New 2024 to you both, a bit late, and thank you for including such wonderful (and healthful) information on foods and nutrition in your posts. While I may not comment on every post, please know they are read and have provided much useful information in not only my own life, but surely those of so many other bloggers. We enjoy tomatoes and have been finding new ways to use them in salads and this post was a timely one for sure!
Strangely enough I don't really care for cooked tomatoes. I wish I did because tomato soups like the one you posted with the red bell peppers sound fabulous, but I know I won't like it. I do however love fresh tomatoes, just with a sprinkling of salt & pepper they are the perfect accompaniment to any meal. I also love fresh homemade salsa which we call Pico de Gallo, just diced fresh tomato, jalapeno, onion and cilantro..yum, try some in a grilled cheese sandwich, just delicious!
I love tomatoes, and all of those dishes look delicious. - Anne (Cornucopia)
I like the cherries are tastier.
Hello Dear Jan,
I keep reading what experts say are important aspects of healthy living: diet, sleep, and exercise. I appreciate the Low Carb Diabetic helping me keep a focus on healthy living. Tomatoes are definitely a part of this and thank you for this post.
I found an article on WebMD I want to share with you.

I love tomatoes. From my garden this summer, I canned 18 quarts of tomato soup, 20 of sauce, and a bunch of sun-dried tomatoes for garnishment. And from late July, when they start ripening, until late September, I eat a tomato sandwich a day! I also turn some into chow-chow (green tomato relish).
Yummy tomatoes, always my fave! Hugs, Valerie
I love tomatoes.

Hello John,
Many thanks for your comments and for sharing the WebMD article.
It was a very interesting read with some excellent tips, some of which I do already practice :)
Thanks again.
All the best Jan
I love tomatoes.
These look delicious!
Oh yum!
I threw a can of diced into my casserole tonight!
I do like cherry tomatoes raw, but other tomatoes I like cooked
I wholeheartedly agree! Tomatoes are indeed a culinary delight that captures the essence of summer in every dish. Whether it's a crisp salad, a rich pasta sauce, or a humble sandwich, the vibrant and juicy flavor of tomatoes brings a burst of sunshine to any meal, regardless of the season. They're a versatile and indispensable ingredient in my kitchen, guaranteeing a taste of summer all year round!
I keep tomatoes around all year, but they do taste better when you can get local ones fresh.
I do like tomatoes but I had to cut them out of my diet when I had bad acid reflux. I do eat them again now though.
My wife is fanatical about tomatoes. I swear she would eat them for dessert if she found a good recipe!
Oh my goodness, how delicious all those dishes look. I will be trying them!xxx
Me encantan los tomates y siempre los tengo en casa. Buenas recetas. Besos.
