If you happened to stop by the Clark Farms booth at the market on Sunday, you most likely saw this crate filled with gorgeous heirloom tomatoes.

If you were lucky enough to get your hands on one of these, you would know that they tasted just as good as they looked.

The best thing about fresh local produce is that you don’t need to do much to enjoy the amazing flavors.  These tomatoes are sweet and flavorful and could probably even be eaten by themselves.

For lunch this afternoon I sliced up the tomato, sprinkled it with sea salt and fresh black pepper and topped it off with some guacamole and a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar.  If you don’t have any guacamole on hand, it would be just as good with sliced avocado or mozzarella cheese.

Enjoy!
