easy summer tart




This is definitely going to be a summer staple. It's quick, easy and delicious! I ran across this recipe while flipping through an old magazine. It's only 5 ingredients so that makes it a perfect summer meal!

Rustic Tomato Basil Tart

1 refrigerated rolled ready to use pie crust {1/2 of a 15 oz pkg.}
3 medium plum tomatoes thinly sliced
1 tbsp balsamic glaze {I used balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing}
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese divided

1. Unroll pie crust on baking sheet. Top with 1 cup cheese, leaving a 1.5 inch border around edges. Arrange tomatoes in a single layer over cheese. Drizzle balsamic glaze evenly over tomatoes: top with basil and the remaining cheese.

2. Fold edges of pie crust over filling, tucking and pressing down edges onto tart.

3. Bake on lowest oven rack in a preheated 375 degree oven 25 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand 15 minutes. Cut into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.

frozen banana ice cream





If you freeze a banana until solid, then whiz it up in a blender or food processor, it gets creamy and a little gooey, just like good custard ice cream.
Have you ever tried frozen-banana ice cream? Try it! It's an easy way to stay cool and use up over-ripe bananas at the same time.
