The Labor Day Weekend is in full force and that means picnics and parties for many of us!! I am always looking for sneaky ways to show people what clean food tastes like without it looking like a diet dish!!! One of my challengers forwarded me this recipe and I just couldn't wait to try it! I had plenty of fresh tomatos and basil from my garden so I didn't even have to buy them at the grocery store!!!
