We are featuring two vegetable tarts this month for the Tuesdays with Dorie group. I played around with my vegetable ribbon tart, based on the produce I had, making my version of a guacamole tart.
I ordered small tomatoes for my biweekly produce delivery, and, since it always includes lettuce, that was my ribboned vegetable. The tomatoes were extremely sweet and juicy, too. I used a leftover sheet of puff pastry, and three out of four avocados that were ripe.
After I baked the puff pastry shell, I covered it with a generous amount of guacamole, topped it with a salad of lettuce, parsley, tomatoes, and scallions, then added the hard boiled eggs. The tomatoes had a propensity to jump off the tart during each bite, so I flipped them over as I munched away.
This was a satisfying accompaniment to a meal, and is very versatile, so you can use a wide variety of vegetables and toppings.
