Perfect as an appetizer for a Spanish themed meal. Start with great bread, quality olive oil and use the best tomatoes that the season can offer. Goes well with some Spanish ham and Manchebo cheese. Simple and easy. Reheated leftovers in the toaster today.
Such a simple and delicious idea. It's a beautiful way to highlight tomatoes at the height of summer.
