    As I previously mentioned on my nectarine galette recipe - Galette is a French name for a round cake or pastry. There are many kinds of galette and this one is savory. The galette has a rustic look and you do not need to be a fancy chef to create it. All you need to do is fold the dough on the filling and whatever way it turns out is more than fine. Just don't tell anyone how easy it was to make this tomato galette and you'll look like a five-star chef!

    For the filling of this easy pastry, I chose cherry tomatoes in a few different colors. I like the look of them and of course the taste too 🙂 You can use regular tomatoes as well, just slice them thinly.

    Underneath the tomatoes, I spread cream cheese and sprinkle chopped basil on the top - these flavors go very well with tomatoes and the outcome is a yummy savory dish. (But come on, that's a given!)

    This recipe, as you probably figured out by now, is super easy and delicious. I definitely recommended this for a light dinner or a summer picnic.

    I hope you will enjoy this tomato galette, here is the recipe:
