Rustic Tomato Zucchini Tart

I have a delicious recipe for you today! The inspiration for this Rustic Tomato Zucchini Tart came after a walk through our garden the other day.

Our garden is producing nicely this year.  Which makes me very happy.  The other day hubby and I picked a few bunches of grape tomatoes.  And then we picked a really nice sized zucchini.

I couldn’t wait to use both the tomato and zucchini and made this delicious Rustic Tomato Zucchini Tart for dinner.  It was great with a large tossed salad.

Here are the tomatoes that made such a delicious tasty recipe.  Aren’t they so cute?  I know, I know, tomatoes aren’t really “cute.”

    They say great minds think alike, as I recently made a Tomato and Cheese Crostata! Very similar to your recipe here and I didn't even see the Pioneer Woman's episode with her Tomato Tart. Crostata or tart, as either one definitely makes for a delicious and light summer or fall-inspired meal 🙂
