Day 13: 21 Day Detox with a Easy Tomato and Olive Tart


 

It's Day 13 of the 21 Day Detox and it's time to start doing the countdown people!

Today, I share with you my beautiful Tomato and Olive Tart.


I must admit, I get really excited to share these recipes!

As I mentioned previously, when I stopped eating meat for years, I became very innovative in my cooking habits.

I needed color and spice to keep me nice and happy. Vegetables became my best friend.


This tomato tarts is one of my favorites!

As soon as it warms up and I can start sharing with you all my gardening habits, we're really going to create some wonderful dishes...

 

There's nothing better than a heirloom tomato salad with fresh marinated mozzarella balls.

 

And if you don't have a garden, start one...you don't need a lot of space, all you need is a container, soil, and a pack of seeds...!


This tart took less than 30 minutes to make, yes...it's that easy! You don't have to line your veggies up like I did, I just love making my food look like art!


Puff pastry comes 2 to a pack, I highly suggest you double this recipe!

Yes...it's that good! Enjoy...
