(User Info | Send a Message) | | I made these for lunch last week. My daughter and I found some really nice cherry tomatoes at a local produce stand. I used the wonderful tuna that Guido brings me when he visits. They were wonderful, with some slices of fresh Italian bread and cool lemonade (Limoncello in mine!) |
