Culinary Сontest | Summer delicacies

Hello Steemians! Today I want to show you some quick, easy, summer and healthy foods. Each of you can prepare it yourself. Slices of tomatoes with rind and olive oil. And ground zucchini with garlic sauce.

Tomato slices with dip and olive oil:
First and foremost, choose fresh, ripe tomatoes and cut them into thin slices. You can use any type of tomato you prefer, such as cherry tomatoes, buffalo heart, or regular large tomatoes.
For the dip, mix the following ingredients in a blender:
1 cup canned pitted and seedless tomatoes
1/2 cup yogurt or sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, finely chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Blend the ingredients until you get a smooth sauce. You may need to add a little water if it is too thick. Then place the tomato slices on a plate and pour the dip on top. Drizzle generously with cold-pressed olive oil and garnish with additional fresh parsley or thyme, if desired.

Zucchini mix:
To begin with, grate 2 medium-sized zucchini on a coarse grater. You can leave the skins on, but remove the seeds. Then, in a large bowl, mix the grated zucchini with the following topping:
1/4 cup full-fat yogurt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 clove of garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Mix well so that the zucchini is evenly coated with the topping. If you like, you can add more spices like red pepper or chili flakes for a little spiciness.
Both recipes are perfect for summer eating as they are light, refreshing and packed with nutrients. I hope you like them!
