Herbed Tomato Tart

Isn’t this what food is about? When you have a dish that you just love? I mean, loooove. You get happy just thinking about it? You make it on special occasions because IT is special and because of its very special nature, it makes your occasion, your day …even more special? This simple tart is, for me, that kind of food…

…It makes my soul sing.

Herbed Tomato Tart

I first made this for Easter a couple years ago. Given the myriad of other dishes I was making that day, I decided to cook a tart precisely because I knew it would be easy to assemble leaving me free to focus on more complicated matters … like deviled eggs. Since then, I’ve made it many times, and I’ve even used yellow tomatoes too. This tart is easy to make. Surprisingly so. Not a lot of ingredients, and they are a few of my favorite things: ripe tomatoes, flaky pie crust, two kinds of mustard, and my very favorite cheese.

It just doesn’t get any better than this folks. Except adding a glass of pinot ..then, yeah, it gets even better.
