4Cucumber, Tomato & Onion Salad
PHOTO: ERIK BERNSTEIN; FOOD STYLING: SPENCER RICHARDS Perfect for when your garden or the local farmers' market is overflowing with cucumbers and tomatoes, this salad also does surprisingly well with out-of-season produce, especially if you make it ahead of time so it can marinate. Just add the herbs at the end so they stay bright and fresh.

Ethan Calabrese We're all for a genius low-carb hack—and these tomatoes totally deliver. We had never thought to stuff them with taco meat, cheese, and sour cream, but we'll do anything in the name of ditching a tortilla for a low-carb meal. You can change up the fillings for cheeseburger tomatoes too.

10Gnocchi Foil Packets
These foil packets trap in steam from the wine and juices from the tomato and corn as everything grills, which in turn cooks the gnocchi to perfectly tender while infusing the pasta with all the flavors of the dish. Bonus: Some of the meal browns a bit on the bottom right before it finishes cooking, adding extra flavor.

11Baked Feta Pasta
ANDREW BUI This is the story about another viral TikTok trend that we kinda sorted wanted to hate... but didn't. Obviously roasting a block of feta with bursting tomatoes is going to be amazing. But is it good enough to break the internet? Our answer, begrudgingly, is yes. It's genius.

13Grilled Tomatoes
PHOTO: ANDREW BUI; FOOD STYLING: ERIKA JOYCE The char from the grill add a slight bitterness that balances a tomato’s acidity and sweetness really well here. You can season simply with salt, black pepper, and oregano and eat as is, but we love topping this with a flavor-packed tahini-Caesar dressing.
