Tomatoes – Tomatoes are so delicious in summertime. They are fresh, they taste entirely different, and you can even grow your own very easily! Tomatoes also have health benefits such as helping build immunity, assisting with heart health, constipation, and so much more. Basil – Basil is also SO easy to grow in the summertime and you’ll have fresh herbs all-summer-long. Basil is one of my favorite fresh herbs. Some of my fav uses are in pasta to add freshness, in salads, or in pasta salad! Garlic Confit – Garlic confit is slowly roasted in oil and it makes it more a sweeter, mellower garlic flavor. It is honestly so good and I love to have it on hand to use in place of regular olive oil to add a pop of flavor in dressings or recipes.
