Easy Summer Tomato Flatbread

Yup, I still have tomatoes coming out of my ears!  And that could be painful if they weren’t so darned delicious. My father-in-law has started sharing his crop with us, and I’m so glad he has because that means fresh tomatoes in EVERYTHING as long as they last! First, I went with a super simple Fresh Summer Tomato Salsa.  I mean, it’s hard to beat a salsa brimming with sweet tomato goodness as a go-to for using Summer’s bounty.

But I still had a pile of these goodies to use up, so I decided to make a meal out of it.  POOF!  Easy Summer Tomato Flatbread was born. I know, I know–since I used a pre-made pizza dough, I suppose this could also pass for a sauce-less pizza.  But because I used the the traditional original dough, I knew it would puff up enough to create a perfect cradle of bread-y goodness for these ripe beauties.

It’s hot as hell here across the country now, which makes me gripe about the weather a LOT.  However, that hot weather also means that I have ready access to fresh herbs right out my back door.  They are bolstered by the heat, so at least I have that to rely on from my air conditioned kitchen. And rely on the I did to amp up the sweetness in these garden-ripe tomatoes, resulting in a perfect mix of sweet, savory, and salty for a perfect bite on a hot night.

Time for you to grab a tube of dough (so to speak) and make your own Easy Summer Tomato Flatbread! You’ll be hoping for a whole new crop of tomatoes in no time!

Recipe Notes

This Summer Tomato Flatbread is so ridiculously easy to make that I'm certain I'll be changing it up throughout the Summer months as other vegetables begin to overflow local gardens and farmer's markets.  How about a fresh zucchini flatbread?  Or a garlic scape bread? What would you put on this easy, pre-made dough?
