Tomato Peach Towers

• 2 large ripe but firm peaches
• 2 large ripe but firm tomatoes
• 8 teaspoons sun-dried tomato pesto
• 8 large basil leaves, plus small leaves for garnish

1. Trim the bottom ends off the peaches and trim the tops and bottoms off the tomatoes; discard or save for another use.
2. Cut the peaches crosswise into five 1/2-inch-thick round slices, running the knife around the pits.
3. Pop the slices off the pit, keeping the slices in order.
4. Cut the tomatoes into five 1/2-inch-thick round slices, keeping the slices in order.
5. Place 1 bottommost peach slice on a serving dish and spread with 1 teaspoon pesto.
6. Top with the bottommost tomato slice and then a basil leaf.
7. Repeat the layering once, then top with the top peach slice to recreate a round fruit shape.
8. Repeat once, then make 2 more towers, alternating the order of the slices so that you start and end with tomato slices, topping with the tomato tops.
9. Garnish the tops with small basil leaves.
