If you are fortunate enough to be dealing with an abundance of fresh tomatoes, this is a beautiful dish for a light supper or for a summer potluck.  The crust is rich and nutty and acts as a great balance for the sweetness and acidity of the tomatoes.  I used Black Krims, Purple Cherokees, and some Yellow Pear tomatoes.  The Black Krims have been coming on strong in the garden, and they are outstanding for salads and other fresh preparations.<\/p>\n\n\n

Because this uses fresh tomatoes, it doesn\u2019t store well overnight (the tomatoes will start to look droopy and sad).\u00a0 You can bake the crust in advance, however, and just warm it briefly before adding the tomatoes and serving.\u00a0 I like the contrast of the warm crust with the cool tomatoes, but it is also perfectly wonderful served at room temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The crust for this slices beautifully, so you could also bake this in a rectangular pan and cut it into squares to make it more finger-food-friendly.  This is my first summer in Colorado working with an actual *excess* of fresh tomatoes, and it is one of the best sorts of problems.  I think you will enjoy this remedy.<\/p>\n\n\n
