Easy Tomato and Smoked Feta Tart

This is one of my new favorite simple, end-of-tomato-season dishes. It's only got about a half dozen main ingredients, but it's the way you treat them that makes it unique.

Fresh Summer Tomato Bruschetta

These classic Italian tomato-topped toasts should be made only when tomatoes are at the peak of their season; the rest of the year, it's better to try my awesome oven-roasted recipe using canned tomatoes. The secret to this version is to use a mix of ripe heirloom varieties, and rub the garlic on the toasts instead of folding it into the tomatoes for a more even and less harsh garlic flavor.
