Simple Tomato Lemon Thyme Pasta

I like my dinners fairly simple most of the time, especially when I have a few flavorful ingredients on hand that I want to be the stars of the show.  Like last night, when I got home and all I wanted was to enjoy some delicious tomatoes.  I had just finished drying a batch, and they were sooo good just plain. These are tomatoes from my Grandpa's garden, and to me, they are as good as dessert.  Or I crave them like they are.  So I threw together a zucchini pasta dish featuring them.  The dried, and the fresh, because I like a variety of textures and flavors.  I also added fresh lemon juice and zest, olive oil, and a bit of fresh thyme. Since I had some and it was a nice change up from my usual basil paired with tomatoes. I also added in some hemp seeds as well for a bit of protein and healthy omega 3s. I can not even begin to describe how good this was!  It was just what I was craving.  Light and flavorful, yet satisfying, since I was very hungry. I am really going to miss my tomatoes when they go out of season!
