SPICED BUTTER BEAN, SPINACH AND TOMATO TOPPING FOR JACKET POTATO
This is really quick to put together and tastes great piled on top of jacket potatoes. However I'm sure it'd work equally well with rice.

SAUTEED SPINACH AND BUTTER BEANS
Got this recipe from a magazine this summer. It was so easy to do and the flavor makes me want to stock up on butter beans. I caramelized the onions, rather than crisped them because I had too many onions in the pan and the moisture lent itself to the softer result. I used rice wine vinegar. and garnished with the pepper flakes. It was so good. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

TOMATO TOPPING
Besides Dennis, and my family on the farm, my other great love is the nifty tomato. It is in my top 2 food choices ever. Upon grabbing the little hiding tomato in the garden, and popping into your mouth on a hot summer day is; about the most terrific taste and feeling one can have. I typically feel like "Julie Andrews" in "The Sound of Music" when she twirls about singing about the "Hills are alive....." I just can't help it. I eat so many tomatoes in fact, (all seasons) that I honestly get those double darn sores in your mouth from the acid. That aside, I haven't met a tomato I have like. This is why this recipe, to me, is quite simply one of the best uses of a tomato that has ever been discovered. Quite honestly, I love ground beef tartare. Sometimes due to dietary smartness, I can't always go around and order Beef Tartare. Jacques Pepin, (great, great Chef) came up with the wonderful addition to the tartare world. I especially love the use of tomato water sauce. Read on, and see if you wouldn't like it too.

Steps:
- Half the tomatoes and give them a gentle squeeze into a sieve to release the seeds. Push a spoon to gently press out as much juice as possible. Discard seeds.
- Dice tomato into 1/4 inch pieces.
- Add rest of ingredients, (except for The Water Sauce), mixing gently.
- Measure out 6 tablespoons of tomato water. If you don't have enough, use canned tomato juice or V-8 so you will measure the right amount.
- Put all ingredients for the "Water of the Tomato" together and mix to emulsify.
- Serving time comes right now, carefully take a good scoop of tomato tartare mixture and place in the center of a china plate. Or a plastic plate. Whatever you have. But you will have enough for 4 good sized servings for each plate.
- Spoon 1/4 of the tomato water on each serving.
- Garnish with parsley.
- Pretend you are dining with the "King and Queen".
