Omelets are one of my favorite quick, go-to meals whether it is breakfast, lunch or dinner. They are often my dinner choice whenever I am home alone at dinner time.   Recently, I made this yummy, summery, cheese omelet that highlights the fresh garden vegetables available in the summer.   The Grilled Corn and Tomato Relish paired with the eggs and cheese introduced a fresh pop of flavor that I loved.  I hope you will love it, too.

As tomatoes become plentiful you may be looking for some tasty recipes. This grilled tomato recipe is wonderful because it can be made ahead of time.  Grilled marinated tomatoes can be served hot, cold, or at room temperature.  What's better than that? There is nothing like a summer tomato.  If you are anything like me you anxiously await the arrival of local tomatoes at your grocery store or farmers market.  This year I have a generous homegrown harvest from my backyard garden.
