I’ve officially gotten tired of Cosmo swiping the cherry tomatoes off the kitchen counter and making cat toys of them. So I’ve begun eating them in the yard, never even bringing them into the house.
While they’re good on their own, I yearned to do more with them. So one day while watering out back, I devised what I call the garden roll-up (okay, so I was hungry, too). I hosed off some cherry tomatoes and some sorrel and Swiss chard leaves. I layered the leaves, added a bit of oregano from the herb bed and rolled it all around a cherry tomato. It made a great little snack while I was watering the garden.
You can do this with most anything that’s available in the garden, as long as it fits in a rolled leaf. This rules out watermelon. And anything that requires cooking, like eggplant. But still, it’s a nice way to enjoy fresh garden flavors with absolutely NO work.
