I lucked out and got these beautiful organic heirloom cherry tomatoes on sale!
I got 4 boxes for $4. After a couple of days with cherry tomatoes on everything I decided to make a side dish with them. Of course I am much better known for my sweet crisps, my Apple Cranberry Pecan Crisp was a brunch favorite for a decade, so why not try a savory crisp.
Panko are Japanese style breadcrumbs that stay crunchy, so these are perfect as a topping for my savory crisp.
I love the combination of tomato and thyme. It always reminds me of my Mother’s Ratatouille. This crisp was so good everything was devoured by two munchkins and me.
Enjoy!
