Do you ever see an image on a food magazine and can’t get it out of your head? About two or three years ago, I saw a beautiful rainbow-coloured tomato tart on the cover of a magazine. Was it Martha Stewart? Real Simple? Another food magazine? I have no idea. But that photo stuck with me and I’ve been waiting to create my own version for awhile.
