The best part about making a galette is that they are rustic so they don’t have to be perfect. This heirloom tomato galette is not just gorgeous, it’s also delicious and simple to make! If your garden is overflowing with tomatoes right now, here’s a few more tomato recipes you need to make; Tomato Salad, Italian Caprese Salad, and Garden Tomato Sauce.

Heirloom Tomato Galette

I had a small dinner party the other night with my neighbors and collaborated with my friend DyAnne, a prive chef from the Culinistas as she made such a beautiful spread, including this tomato galette that I knew I had to share. I watched her whip this up and once I saw how simple it was, I was excited to make it myself. I made it for dinner with a salad and grilled protein and my family loved it! Tommy said it made him think of a pizza, sort of like a pizza pie.

I modified their recipe slightly using pesto as the base, making this just a few ingredients!

I made this again for dinner last night, and my daughter Karina asked me to make this again and again! I wanted to share this with you as soon as possible because tomatoes are still at their peak and I know you’ll want to make this!
