It’s mid-August and tomato season is still heating up! Everyone associates tomatoes with summer, but they actually keep popping off well into October. So throw these recipes on your meal plan and enjoy one of the greatest produce seasons there is!
summer tomato galette //
Hundreds of you have made it over the past two weeks, and hundreds more of you need to make it! The simple crust is worth the extra couple of minutes of effort.
creamy but cream-less tomato soup //
Use fresh tomatoes to make this soup! If it’s too hot to eat it now, freeze it for a few months from now! Instructions on how to use fresh instead of canned tomatoes are in the substitutions section.
chicken panzanella //
This is a real sleeper hit of WTC! It’s a simple sheet pan meal that has so much flavor and texture — tender chicken, crunchy breadcrumbs, fresh tomatoes, soft goat cheese, REALLY GOOD!
heirloom tomato halibut en papillote //
Fish en papillote is one of the easiest to accomplish, fanciest feeling meals. And it’s delicious with any summer tomato! Here’s another fish en papillote recipe with a video!

Use your favorite store-bought ravioli to make this DELIGHTFUL, simple pasta dish.

tomato pie toast //
When you’re craving tomato pie, but you only have 5 minutes. SO GOOD.
sunshine pasta //
Simple, delicious pasta.
one-pan tomato butter pasta //
This one has been really popular with my Insta followers this month! You cook the pasta and tomatoes all in the same roasting dish together. Yes, you cook pasta in the oven! Trust me, it works, and it rocks. Here’s a video.
creamy cherry tomato pasta //
Very similar to the recipe above, but with a smooth creamy tomato sauce instead of a chunky one with whole tomatoes in it.
one-pot summer corn caprese pasta //
Corn! Tomatoes! Pasta! Only one pot! This is such a delicious and simple pasta recipe.
best caprese salad ever //
Truly an outrageously good caprese. You can use any tomatoes, not just cherry tomatoes. Serve with grilled chicken and some delicious grilled bread!
tomato farrotto //
A filling, nutritious meal. Risotto vibes, but using wholegrain farro instead of rice. If you need meat, serve with roasted chicken or grilled shrimp.
tomato feta dip
My cousin Lexie introduced me to this dip and it is absolutely delicious and disappears at parties. No party coming up? Just serve it over grilled chicken on a bed of arugula! Yum.
