PAN-ROASTED CORN AND TOMATO SALAD
You can take a corn and tomato salad in a number of directions, but at the end of the day it shouldn't be much more than a dish you can make perfectly only in mid- to late summer, and one that showcases its primary ingredients. My version here marries corn and tomatoes with chile, avocado, cilantro and lime. It is just plain good. At the end, you've got meaty smokiness from bacon; that incredible sweetness of corn; the fruity acidity of tomato; the tender, smooth fattiness of avocado, and the sharpness of chile. It's a summer winner, one that you shouldn't even try after the first frost.

OVEN-ROASTED TOMATO AND SWEET CORN GRATIN
I love fresh vegetables so much! Not counting what is in the grocery produce dept. Sometimes, they get real garden produce, but most of the time, it seems like something artificial--hot house grown. When you mix garden ripe tomatoes and corn, it doesn't get any better! Thanks to Cooking Thin with Chef Kathleen. I have tweaked only slightly.

AMAZINGLY SWEET SLOW-ROASTED TOMATOES
These don't look like they are going to taste as amazing as they do, and I know it might be asking a lot to have the oven on for 2 hours on a hot summer day. But it's on low and the end result will be worth it. Lean over the plate when you bite into the tomatoes, as the juice may squirt. You can eat these as a snack or a side dish, or put them through a food mill for an incredibly sweet sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Put the halved tomatoes in a bowl and toss with the olive oil. Oil a rack that will fit on top of a baking sheet. Place foil on the baking sheet and oil the foil, and place the rack on top. Place the tomatoes, cut side up, on the rack. Sprinkle with coarse salt and a tiny amount of sugar. Place in the oven and roast for 2 hours. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for about 30 minutes. The tomatoes will look a little dry on the surfaces and the skin will be tough. But when you bite into the tomatoes you'll experience a rush of incredibly sweet juice and pulp. If you want to use these for a sauce, put through the fine blade of a food mill.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes and sweet corn. This will ensure that your gratin has the best possible flavor.
- Roast the tomatoes and corn before adding them to the gratin. This will help to concentrate their flavor and give them a slightly smoky taste.
- Use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese will work well in this recipe.
- Don't overcook the gratin. It should be cooked until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the tomatoes and corn are tender.
- Serve the gratin hot. It can be served as a main course or a side dish.
Conclusion:
This oven-roasted tomato and sweet corn gratin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh summer tomatoes and corn. The gratin is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, making it a healthy choice for your family.
