TASTIEST PART OF THE SEASON

[DavHut]

And I aint talking detectors! The best part of summer besides water hunting is the produce. Here, for your approval, is todays straight-from-the-garden goodie.

Tomatoe, Cucmber and Vidalia Onion Salad.
Ripe tom's from the bush, one cucmber and a vidalia onion (store bought). Toss with juice of one fresh squeezed lemon, olive oil, salt and fresh ground pepper. Chill and enjoy.

I make something similar, but along with some bell pepper thinly sliced and some chunks of celery. I use red wine vinegar instead of lemon juice and about a tablespoon of sugar for a sweet/sour flavor.
The hardest part is the chill, you just want to eat it right away.
Ain't nothin' greater than a homegrown tamater!!

Sounds good! Try adding a little of that chipotle you guys favor down in Texas, too, BCD. Get the kind that say "en adobado" on the label of the can.

Sometimes I chop just a bit of cilantro into it as well.

I prefer my famous "chefs" salad that I make often to go with barbecued steak. It contains lettuce, green onions, tomatos, mushrooms, radishes, sliced olives, shrimp, diced cheddar cheese, and doused with one's favorite salad dressing. Tis "yummy."

Good old yummy roast-n-ears. Eat a ton of those when I lived back there.
