Maybe it's their array of colors or that every one is charmingly unique, but there's something about heirloom tomatoes that make us uncontrollably giddy — and hungry. In the past, maybe you've tossed them in a panzanella salad with chunks of crusty bread, cracked pepper and fresh basil, but these colorful heirloom tomato recipes have so much more to offer. Think kebabs, honey toast, and pizza.
