Tomato and Basil with Red Pepper Hummus

This lunch sings of summer. Fresh tomatoes, vine ripened to perfection are the basis of my summer diet, and they are featured in this light sandwich. We have discovered that seasoning our tomato slices on a salt block turns up their flavor, and our salt block is left sitting on the counter for easy access. 

This is Nebraska Wedding, a bright orange tomato, light and sweet.

Spread a little red pepper hummus on whole wheat bread, top with tomato and basil leaves and you have the most incredible open-faced sandwich. 
I took one bite, then realized there was something that could make this even better...
Bacon!

    1. Thanks, Ward. We also tried red pepper hummus with tomato and tarragon. I'm not sure which I prefer! It's all about the tomato.
