Finally: tomato season is in full swing! The farmer’s market is bursting with the most beautiful array of heirloom tomatoes and I want to use them on everything. Besides simple summer salads & no-cook sauces, toast is my favorite way to eat tomatoes this time of year. They don’t need much – just some garlic, olive oil & a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. For tomorrow’s breakfast (and even lunch and dinner when it’s too hot to turn on the oven) this toast is your new go-to.

This looks delicious! I’ll have to try it with all the tomatoes ripening in my garden!
Looks beautiful! I love tomato season and have a bunch of heirlooms to use.
You lost me on the Hemp Seeds…keep it simple and fresh!
You actually HAD me at hemp seeds. I am obsessed with them these days and put them in everything- salads, smoothies, pastas… I find they have an almost pine nut flavor to them.
Oh my gosh, this looks so good! I’ve never had hemp seeds not blended into a smoothie, but the pine nut comparison makes me want to try them!!
Looks delicious!
