Take advantage of summer tomatoes now while they are at their peak! I also have an Oven Roasted Tomato Sauce, perfect if you have ripe summer plum tomatoes. And if you want a chilled soup with garden tomatoes, this easy Gazpacho recipe is a must!

This recipe is from the archives from last summer, I’ve been making it quite often these past few weeks now that grape tomatoes are at their peak so I decided to bring this recipe forward. Perfect over your favorite pasta shape for meatless Mondays in less than 30 minutes.
