This viral heirloom tomato flight is the perfect snack or lunch this summer.
I have been seeing the viral heirloom tomato flights all over my feed lately and knew I needed to jump on the trend!
Ingredients
- Heirloom Tomatoes – If you have never had an heirloom tomato you are severely missing out. The taste and the flavor is unmatched. Hit up your local farmers market for the best chance of finding them if you aren’t growing them in your garden.
- Salt and Pepper – a good high quality flakey salt is my favorite and really brings out the flavor of the tomatoes combined with fresh cracked pepper and you could honestly stop here if you wanted.
- Toppings – This is where you can really let your creativity shine! I’ll share my top flavor combos in the recipe card below but feel free to add in additional flavors.
How to Make the Viral Heirloom Tomato Flight
- Wash and dry your tomatoes. Slice thickly (approx 0.25″) and sprinkle with flakey salt and fresh cracked pepper.
- Top each flight with the ingredients of each flavor combo.
- Serve immediately and enjoy.
Flavor Combo Ideas
Below are the flavor combos that I put together for my flight, but feel free to get creative!
Clasic BLT
A classic BLT flavor combination with mayonnaise (switch it up with spicy mayo), romaine lettuce, and crispy bacon.
Caprese
Classic caprese flavors fresh mozzarella, fresh basil, and balsamic glaze.
Greek
Imagine a greek salad on a tomato with a drizzle of olive oil, crumble feta cheese, sliced cucumbers, kalmata olives, and fresh dill.
Peach Caprese
A touch of sweetness with fresh mozzarella, sliced peaches, fresh basil, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze (white balsamic would be amazing too).
