    The quotes let me smile. I have always tomatoes in my garden. My family loves a tomato salad with onions, salt and pepper and mayonnaise .A quick and easy salad and tastes good. I deifinitely try your out your recipes, they look delicious.

    This is not fair! I haven't eaten my evening meal yet and had intended to be home for the remainder of the day. However, I see some of these recipes and I want to rush to the store to buy tomatoes. Decisions, decisions. Need I say job well done? :)

    People who make their own tomato sauce are my heroes. I also like to toss drained, spiced stewed tomatoes in with sauteed small red or black beans and serve with pita.

    Hey, Great recipes, about the tomato soup, the more green herbs you add, the better it becomes, try adding dill, green onion and celery, also add 1/2 a cup of rice,
    It becomes amazing

    Great tomato coverage. Such a wealth of information and the recipes are wonderful. Although I personally don't cook much, some of these are making me THINK about changing that habit. :)

    I think Kipsy might return if I fixed her the Shrimp dish with Feta that you have here. My tomato plants did not do so well this year, but I do have several bags of frozen ones I can use for sauce!

    The tomato stackers sounds good very creative, and the quote by George Miller made me laugh! I have made tomato sauce from scratch, but for some reason it comes out a bit to tangy for me. I discovered if you add a teaspoon or two of sugar it helps.
    Great lens,

    Tomatoes are definitely a huge part of my diet, and probably the fruit I eat most often. Tomato and mozzarella sandwiches are a go-to weekend lunch staple around here.

    This is a delicious lens! :-) My very favorite sandwich of all time is tomato and avocado with salt and pepper and maybe a little mayo on multigrain toast. Oh man, I could eat that every day. I also love the quotes, especially Andy Rooney's! Fresh salsa, fresh tomato sauce - you've got them all!

    Wow! Great lens. I love tomatoes but no one else in my family does. It's a bummer. I have to only buy a couple because they go bad otherwise.

    Love your lens. Would you add "I just Love ALL tomatoes" to your poll?

    For Blossom end rot, a friend suggested sprinkling powdered milk on the soil. I did it and it seems to have worked. My tomatoes are in pots. The best areas of sun in my yard are not where I can plant them. I am also crushing up egg shells to mix with the soil.

    5 stars from me and a lensroll to one of my lenses!

    Don't forget about the health benefits of tomatoes. These include the following:

    There are many health benefits from eating natural grown tomatoes. They contain compounds which are proven to help prevent heart disease, cancer, and cataracts just to name a few.

    Tomatoes contain large quantities of Vitamin C providing up to 40% of the RDI (Recommended Daily Intake), up to 20% RDI for Vitamin A, 8% RDI of Potassium, and between 7 - 10 % RDI of Iron.

    The red colouring of the tomato is called Lycopene. It is a type of carotenoid anti-oxidant that has been found to contain up to twice the punch of more well known anti-oxidant beta-carotene. Lycopene has been found to offer some protection against a growing list of cancers which include prostate cancer in men, breast cancer in woman, pancreatic, endometrial and lung cancer.

    Recent research is beginning to show that 2 other compounds found in tomatoes may help to fight lung cancer as well. Coumaric acid and chlorogenic acid are

    Better than ice cream! Used to carry a salt shaker in our hip pocket, through the 'mater patch lookin' for a just-ripe one. Let it drop into our hand with a touch, bite a piece of skin off and spit it out, pour a little salt on the juicy spot and gnarsh into it. Slurpy good.
