All you need is a frozen puff pastry dough, some pesto, 2 heirloom tomatoes and some parmesan cheese. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Roll out the dough and press it into your buttered pan. Spread pesto on the bottom (I always keep ice cubes of pesto in my freezer for last minute pesto fixes...I think I used 3 cubes for this). Cut the tomatoes into thick slices and lay them in the tarte. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and bake for 15 minutes. Then lower the oven temp to 350 and bake for another 10-15 minutes...until the puff pastry and parmesan are golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes or so. Serve and enjoy!
p.s. I apologize to all readers who do not live in California...I realize that a post about heirloom tomatoes right now is a little late for you. Really, I'm not trying to rub it in that we are still enjoying tomatoes here.

I'll take one, please! This is one of the few Julie creations that I haven't yet enjoyed. It looks so easy maybe I should try and make it.
You SHOULD try to make it, honey :)
This looks delicious!
Hi Julie,
This look so simple and yummy. I wish I had a piece.

Thank you so much for the positive feedback! I will try to post again soon :) ...probably about something slow-cooked and hearty. Funny how we jump from heirloom tomatoes to hearty. Ahh fall!
