Recipe Round Up: Tomato Toast
Tomato Toast
This is more of a guideline than a recipe. It is a fantastic breakfast or lunch - filling and tasty. For our family, I use about three to four pints of cherry tomatoes, maybe half a large jar of kalamatas, drained, five or six cloves of garlic, a healthy amount of salt and pepper, a generous amount of olive oil, and a sprinkling of Aleppo pepper flakes. You can use any tomatoes you have, you can use green olives or Spanish olives, little Turkish pink olives, or oil cured Moroccan olives. If you don't have basil, use oregano, or mint, or whatever fresh herb you like. This is totally up to you.

Stir all the ingredients together, except for the toast, and serve on hot toast. We also generally serve some fruit with this.
