Blue Cheese Dressing

I've got my tomatoes planted in my garden and I can hardly wait to start harvesting my own fresh tomatoes. 

I'm so excited about my tomatoes in fact that I've already started planning out how I am going to eat them.  Sandwiches, salads, fresh tomato sauce, salsa - oooohh the possibilities. 

I tend to prefer really simple recipes for fresh garden tomatoes - drizzled with a little bit of dressing sprinkled with fresh basil= tomato perfection.

I made a batch of homemade blue cheese dressing for Ryan's graduation party and in anticipation of the bumper crop of tomatoes that I am going to have this summer (Yes, I am optimistic.)  I thought I would try it out on some supermarket tomatoes. 

Now that I have a jar of blue cheese in my refrigerator, I am even MORE excited about my garden tomatoes.
