This time of the year, are great for small juicy tomatoes. When I’m out at the grocery store, I always try to snag a few of the cherry tomato cases, when they are running a good deal. Summer is when they are in season and it’s great as a snack as well. Freeze them and pop them an hour before you are ready to eat and you’ve got yourself a healthy snack. I enjoy making caprese salad for lunches or an appetizer, with a good drizzle of balsamic vinaigrette and olive oil. Make use of the in-season produce with this quick recipe that is sure to please all your taste buds.
