Too Many Tomatoes?

I see the most amazing basket of beautiful tomatoes...plum tomatoes, Brandwine tomatoes ands sweet juicy orange and yellow tomatoes.

I also see a busy Monday.
I am going to make Tomato Pie and Fire Roasted Gazpacho.
The tomato pie calles for 2 1/2 pounds of tomatoes but I am going to use 3 pounds.
The gazpacho calles for 4 pounds of tomatoes but I am going to use 5 pounds.
I will still have pounds and pounds of tomatoes left.
I am going to use this bad boy for a tomato sandwich for lunch.
Another pound gone.

I have tried a reasonable discussion but according to Lucy...
cats don't do tomatoes.

Any takers for the leftovers?
I will even throw in a few dozen peppers and zucchini!!!
