Are these the tomatoes you're growing, Elaine? They look like stuffing tomatoes, but grow like an Italian plum tomato?
Candy and I are also growing some, and will be making this tomorrow. Have to buy some shrimps! FIVE and thanks :)

I see no reason WHY this should not have merited a five, Chef Elaine. It is presented beautifully and I have flagged it as such.
