Tomatoes are probably some of the most versatile ingredients Mother Nature gave to us. They can be used in numerous dishes, bringing flavor and great taste.

Since it is tomato season, I thought of cooking something besides salad using these wonderful tomatoes. I came up with this tart which is not only delicious, but gluten-free, paleo and grain free, all in all a great paleo dish.

You may use any type of tomatoes you have at hand, small or large, red, yellow or brown, they all taste extraordinary. And the best thing is that this dish is very easy to prepare, it takes less time than the conventional tarts, plus the coconut flour will give you a crunchy and delicious base.

From my point of view, tomatoes go best with good quality olive oil, oregano and basil so I used these herbs to cook and the result was according or even beyond my expectations.
