Roast tomato & shrimp salad

Shrimp and Roast Tomato Salad

I am I think 30%-40% tomato lately. They just keep vanishing into me.

I would eat this first before starting on you.

I've been craving tomatoes lately too. I want roasted tomatoes spread with that garlic sauce from the mediterranean place... right after my enchilada.

The white garlic sauce is apparently not too hard to make. There is a greek variant called skordalia that has a thickener like potato or breadcrumbs in it, and a lebanese variant called toum that has egg whites sometimes. Or just garlic, olive oil, lemon, and salt.

There are variants with different oils and no mayo.

this looks phenomenal. i hate the word "potluck" (for reasons unknown), but please please let's have an "i'll-cook-and-you'll-cook" party and share lots of delicious foods. OM NOM NOM NOM.

Potluck makes me think of Tupperware and Tuna casserole

Wow! Given how difficult it is to photograph food and make it look appetizing, this must have been phenomenolly gorgeous in person. It's almost enough to set aside my vegetarianism.

That looks fantastic!
