On Veteran’s Day, Nancy and I visited the Murrieta Rotary Club’s Field of Honor. All the rows of American Flags and the attached stories of the individual Veteran represented provides quite an impressive display. You need to visit if you have never been.
We stopped for lunch at the Downtown Public Restaurant after our visit to the Field of Honor. On their menu, their list of appetizers includes what they call their “Tomato Addiction” which is Roasted Tomatoes, Garlic, some Herbs, and Balsamic Vinegar. You should not miss this if you enjoy the taste of roasted tomatoes.
What a delicious starter to have before your main meal. The combination of the heavy garlic and the sweet tartness of the balsamic vinegar with the roasted tomatoes is such that you just can’t stop taking bite after bite. No wonder they call it Tomato Addiction. Tomato heaven happens when you add some of the roasted tomato mixture to some of the provided homemade garlic-toasted sourdough bread. It just doesn’t get any better!
The Downtown Public Restaurant does such a great job on this appetizer that I had to come up with my own version. The recipe is not complex as there are few ingredients. Leave some comments and let me know what you think of the recipe!
As always, thanks for Spending Time in My Kitchen!
