How to Cut a Tomato
This may seem ridiculously simple, but it's a little trick I use when I need a nice juicy slice or two of tomato for a sandwich or a veggie burger. This method does a few things:
* it gives you a big, center slice of tomato without messing with the blossom end or stem which doesn't make a good sandwich slice anyway
* it lets you store the rest of the tomato without the cut end touching the plastic wrap
* the left over tomato stays fresh in the refrigerator longer
Here we go!

| Pick a big, juicy tomato.This bad boy came out of my garden - it's a pink Brandywine. |
 |
| Slice to the left of the middle depending on how big a slice you want to end up with |
 |
| Cut a slice or two |
 |
| Place the remaining tomato top over the bottom. It should fig snug. |
 |
| Place in a baggy. Don't worry, the open tomato won't touch the plastic. |
 |
| Place the slice of tomato in your sandwich or on a burger. Using a round, whole grain bun is perfect. This is a hummus, cucumber, avocado and tomato sandwich. |
 |
| Enjoy! |
