I'm Kathy Lloyd. I grew up on a farm near Elmore, MN and have lived in Fairmont for over 44 years. I have always loved to cook, even when I was very young. I loved to stay with my Aunt Dorothy during my childhood. She was a great cook and used to give me freedom in the kitchen, teaching me along the way. She made recipes from our Norwegian heritage, along with pies, homemade doughnuts, yeast bread and cinnamon rolls.

Marrying a husband with a hearty appetite and raising 3 sons and 1 daughter gave me plenty of hungry appetites to satisfy! I worked as a nurse for 42 years and have been retired for 11 years. Even though I loved my work, I love having time to spend with my grandchildren, to experiment with new recipes and work with my flowers in the summer. Life has been very good to me, blessing me with my loving family and great friends!

I enjoy sharing my love of cooking and recipes with the readers of the Photo Press! (I have had my share of cooking failures over the years!)

Tomato season is here!

8/21/2018

We only have 2 tomato plants but we have a gorgeous, plentiful tomato crop. All winter long I long for fresh tomatoes, now finally they are ready. We have enough to share with friends. My favorite use for fresh tomatoes is the good old BLT. I could eat one every day during the season. Since we have such a good amount I am looking to use them other ways. Today I am sharing one of those tomato recipes, a tasty side dish!

British Broiled Tomatoes
1 large ripe tomato
Salt and pepper
1 clove garlic, crushed or minced
1/2 cup grated cheese
2 Tablespoons butter
1/4 cup fresh parsley

Wash tomato. Cut in half, drain on paper towels cut side down for 20 minutes. Place tomato halves cut side up in baking dish. Season with salt and pepper and garlic. Sprinkle with cheese, dot with butter and top with parsley. Place under broiler until cheese is bubbly about 3 minutes, watch closely. Serves two.
Have a great week!
