My garden is thriving this year which has me thinking I must have done something extra to it. I didn’t realized the obvious answer until recently when, Lynne {from Dreams On34th Street} commented to me about the fruits and vegetables ripening earlier than normal and the “amazing summer” we are having. Normally, the temperature in the Northwest will be in the mild 70s and 80s and any hotter doesn’t occur until August. If this weather is here to stay through September, I will be harvesting more tomatoes than usual. I’m Looking forward to that!
Here are some ways I’ve been using tomatoes this season by incorporating them in simple mixed greens and roasting to use in appetizers, with pastas, and quinoa salads.
