Tomato Basil Risotto [V, GF]

November 12, 2015 by 918 Plate Leave a Comment

This tomato basil risotto is savory and perfect for a light meal by itself!

This dinner came together when I didn’t have a plan and went digging through our kitchen and garden. We finally dug up the tomato plants this week and used the very very last of the tomatoes. Check out the size of those roots. Our basil plant has been chopped down, but there are still a few sprigs left for propagating for winter. Garlic is in the ground for the first time, and even our spaghetti squash still has a chance! We’re feeling pretty good as we brace ourselves for winter.

Pesto Caprese Salad: Three Ways

August 20, 2015 by 918 Plate Leave a Comment

Caprese Salad: Three Ways | 918 Plate

I have not always been a tomato fan. In fact…This is one of the few ways I will eat a raw tomato, just purely based on the fact that there are too many other things involved that I like to eat. (Other ways include and are limited to: Pico de Gallo.) Traditional Caprese Salad is made with plain basil leaves, but what’s the fun in that, really? All of the following forms you’ll see today have incorporated pesto. Don’t worry, it doesn’t make them hard to make!
