Sun-dried tomatoes, olives, fresh basil and oregano; a mixture of summer squash and kale create Mediterranean Bird’s Nest with Marinated Dried Tomatoes, Olives and Cheese, a beautiful, easy to prepare, gourmet, vegetarian, gluten-free meal.
You can make your own Marinated Dried Tomatoes with Fresh Herbs: marjoram, basil, thyme and garlic. YUM! Eat them from the jar or put them on salad, pasta, pizza; thicken tomato sauces and add color and fragrant flavors to vegetable sautés.
A great appetizer from my summer personal chef menu is platters of sliced garden fresh organic tomatoes, topped with fresh mozzarella decorated with fresh basil and drizzled with extra virgin olive oil .
