Tomato Tart Recipe with Goat Cheese

Ripe summer tomatoes make this Tomato Tart Recipe a seriously delicious dinner. A buttery crust is filled with creamy goat cheese and caramelized onions before topping with sliced heirloom tomatoes. A sprinkling of fresh parmesan gives it a browned, bubbling top when you slide it out of the oven. A slice of this tomato tart makes a great warm weather supper.

Dinner Divas Weekly Menu Plan: Week 9

Dinner Divas
The Divas are back, friends! It’s Friday and that means a week’s worth of dinner recipes along with 2 extras.   From pizza to pasta,  we have it all this week, including a fresh tomato tart and a gorgeous salad for lighter meals. 

How it works:  Every Friday morning, a new meal plan will show up in your email.  It will consist of 5 dinner options, plus 2 extras.  Those two extras could be side dishes, dessert, drinks, etc.   The Dinner Divas weekly menu plans will feature (mostly) healthy, seasonal foods that don’t take all day to prepare.   Getting the weekly menu delivered to your inbox on Friday morning gives you the chance to make your shopping list and get organized for the week ahead.  We’ve got so much good stuff this week!  I’d love to hear from you & see your creations!  Post a pic using #DinnerDivas and tag @pookspantry!   I hope this weekly menu plan provides inspiration and makes life a little easier… one meal at a time. 

I am over the moon for this Pork Banh Mi Burger from Girl in the Little Red Kitchen, It has everything I love in a burger. Tons of flavor!

Next is this One Pot Pasta with Fresh Tomatoes and Spinach from The Chef Next Door.  I don’t know about you, but Tuesdays are always harder for me than Mondays.  This is the perfect low effort meal for me.

One of my favorite (and most popular) recipes.  This Heirloom Tomato and Goat Cheese Tart is a serious stunner.  Although it looks quite fussy, it’s not as difficult to make as you might imagine.  It’s a beautiful way to use up those luscious summer tomatoes!

This beautiful Strawberry Mango Salad with Strawberry Poppyseed Dressing from Comfortable Domestic is a great option for a light Summer dinner when it’s just too hot to cook.

Friday means PIZZA and Pastry Chef Online does not disappoint with her Sausage Gravy Pizza with Peppers and Onions.

It wouldn’t be summer without an awesome recipe for potato salad.  Girl in the Little Red Kitchen brings Potato Salad with Bacon, Corn and Peppers as an extra treat this week.  I would be first in line for this!

Finally, we close out the week with The Best Strawberry Shortcake from Comfortably Domestic.  I can’t imagine a backyard gathering without it.  What a perfect way to wrap up!

 

Thank you all so much for being here!  Next week, our theme will be RED, WHITE & BLUE!  Just in time to plan your 4th of July menu.

Remember, if you make any of these recipes, use the hashtag #DinnerDivas so we can see your creations!  See you next week!

Dulce de Leche Tart with Popcorn Crust

This dulce de leche tart with popcorn crust was born of my lifelong love affair with homemade caramel corn.

I wanted to put a  twist on this most delicious treat and elevate it to something you could actually serve to guests (not that I wouldn’t put out a big trough of caramel corn, but you know what I mean).
