Vincent Van Gogh famously created a series of sunflower paintings .  You can find information and more art prints from the series by visiting Sunflowers by Vincent Van Gogh

I wasn’t able to find much information about the photographer Linda Burgess except that she’s known as a daylight photographer.  I greatly admire her work.  She has a wonderful eye for catching the natural beauty and tranquility of  the herb gardens she has photographed.  I’ve posted several of my favorite Linda Burgess Herb Garden art prints here but Linda Burgess works with many other natural subjects.  If you don’t see the photograph you’re looking for, or you’d like to see more of this fine artist’s work, visit Allposters.com and do a search for Linda Burgess.

My Favorite Tomato Sandwich Recipes
It’s true that my taste for different types of foods has changed and matured as I’ve grown older but my love for a good tomato sandwich has never faltered. If you love tomato sandwiches as much as I do why not try one of my favorite sandwich recipes today!

Although sliced tomatoes form the base of each of the following sandwich recipes, the added ingredients give each one a unique, taste-tempting flavor.

Tomatoes on Toast

As a kid, I couldn’t get enough of these. Today I still enjoy them.

The simple recipe for tomatoes on toast is exactly what it says. I make mine using lightly toasted white bread, several tomato slices and a good heap of Miracle Whip brand salad dressing. If you are a mayonnaise lover, that will do nicely as well. That’s it! Simple, yet scrumptious. What more could you want?

The Dagwood Sandwich

Although they are more commonly known as Club Sandwiches, my Grannie always called these taste treats, Dagwood Sandwiches, after Blondie’s husband in the old Blondie cartoons. Dagwood was frequently seen eating sandwiches so huge they looked like they might topple over before he could get them into his mouth. I enjoyed these tomato sandwiches immensely during my middle school years and can still be found building one as a midnight snack.

To make a proper Dagwood Sandwich, you’ll need:

3 slices of lightly toasted bread
Sliced deli Ham
Sliced Tomatoes
Several whole Lettuce leaves
Miracle Whip brand salad dressing (or mayonnaise)

Directions:

Spread mayo on the first slice of toast.
Top with tomatoes, lettuce and sliced ham.
Top that with another slice of toast.
Spread mayo, add another layer of tomatoes, lettuce ans sliced ham.
Complete your sandwich with the third slice of toast.

Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato Sandwich

I spent the better portion of my teen years sitting at the luncheon counter in Woolworth’s discussing boys and devouring Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato Sandwiches. They were cheap and delicious. In my opinion, they still are!

Ingredients:

Again for this one the name says it all!

Directions:

Take several slices of crispy bacon, a couple slices of fresh tomato and some fresh lettuce leaves. Pile all of those ingredients in between 2 slices of toast.
Add a dab of mayonnaise (or Miracle Whip brand salad dressing) and you’re done!

Italian Style Tomato Sandwiches

For me, these were love at first bite. Using Olive oil and Italian herbs and spices as condiments in your tomato sandwiches adds a deep, rich flavor that can’t be beat. My husband and I frequently enjoy these satisfying Italian style tomato sandwiches for dinner.

Ingredients:

One loaf of fresh crusty Italian bread, sliced lengthwise.
2 medium sized tomatoes, sliced thin
5 or 6 slices of fresh mozzarella cheese
About a half pound of prosciutto, capicola or Genoa salami (optional or leave out completely)
Olive oil for drizzling
A sprinkling of, fresh or dried, basil and oregano
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

On the bottom half of your Italian bread, make a single layer of mozzarella cheese.
Top that with a single layer of your choice of meat, if you are including it.
Top that with a single row of fresh tomato slices.
Sprinkle with herbs and spices.
Drizzle with Olive oil.
To finish, replace the top of the Italian bread.
Slice in half to make 2 large hero sandwiches.

This recipe is also nice when sliced into smaller sections and used as an appetizer or as finger sandwiches for a luncheon.

Grilled Vegetable Antipasto is the perfect dish to start off a summer barbeque or cook out. It also goes nicely when served at the beginning of any Italian meal. When served with crusty sliced Italian bread this antipasto also makes a nice luncheon.

Antipasto is generally an appetizer which consists of an assortment of different foods.

Delicious Grilled Vegetable Antipasto is simply a combination of fresh vegetables that are marinated in vinaigrette and grilled before serving. Please read all of the directions before attempting this recipe as there are many ways for you to personalize it and make it your own!

Vinaigrette Marinade

Be sure to mix this into a large enough bowl or container to hold all of your vegetables. If you prefer you may substitute this marinade with your favorite bottled Italian vinaigrette style dressing.

Ingredients

1 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 Cup Red Wine Vinegar
3 Cloves minced Garlic
Salt and Pepper to Taste

Directions

Combine all ingredients to make marinade.

Grilled Fresh Vegetables

Use your choice of several or add new ones.

Always start with clean fresh vegetables. Use this handy guide for grilled vegetables, preparation and cook times, when substituting other fresh vegetables. Frozen or canned vegetables should not be used in this recipe.

Ingredients

Marinade – Use the above recipe
4 Red or Green Bell Peppers (seeded and sliced, quarters)
4 Italian Frying Peppers (seeded and sliced, quarters)
3 small Eggplants (sliced lengthwise, ½ inch strips)
Dozen White or Porcini Mushrooms (whole)
4 Portabella Mushrooms (whole while cooking, then slice)
1 Pound Asparagus (bottoms trimmed)
1 Head Cauliflower (cut sections)
1 Head Broccoli (cut sections)
1 Pound Fresh Green Beans (whole)

Directions

Mix, or pour, marinade into a large enough container to hold all of your prepared vegetables. Add vegetables and mix to coat. Allow them to sit in the marinade for up to one hour, stirring approximately every 15 minutes.

Remove vegetables from marinade and grill over high heat until nicely browned. Different vegetables will require different cook times. Never leave your veggies on the grill unattended!

Arrange on a serving platter and serve hot, warm or cold.

Feel free to add some sliced cheeses, shredded fresh herbs and maybe some pungent olives to your serving platter prior to bringing this dish to the table.
