Fresh tomatoes, baked tomatoes, tomato jam, tomato butter, tomato soup. What is your favorite way to eat tomatoes?
We’ve been playing with the idea of doing meal boxes dedicated to ONE seasonal veggie/fruit – but with tons of different recipes you can make at home. First up was the Blueberry Box. A bunch of you tried that one and we got a bunch of positive feedback, so I think we’ll bring it back next year.
Now that tomatoes are coming in from Red Fire and Next Barn Over, we’ve dreamed up our first annual Tomato Box.
Click here to grab a box on 8/18 or 8/25 — or read on to see all the recipes inside:
