Tomato Topper
Ripe, juicy tomatoes are inexpensive and easy to find this month. Get beefsteak, cherry, and heirloom varieties. (Remember to store them stem-side down on the countertop, never in the fridge.) They're a no-brainer in salads, but we also like them tossed with pasta and shrimp or as a tasty Italian relish.
