One of our favorite summer food trends so far are tomato flights, which seems to have started with @alessandrabrontsema on TikTok and spread from there. Think beer flights, but instead of tiny glasses of craft brews, you get thick slices of juicy heirloom tomatoes, each with its own flavorful topping. It's summer's answer to egg flights and we can't wait to give it a try.

Food flights aren’t new, of course. Egg flights, butter flights and taco flights have all had their moment, but there’s something about the simplicity of a tomato flight that feels so right.
What makes this trend even better is its low-effort, high-reward nature. You don’t need to cook anything. Just slice the tomatoes, sprinkle on a few fresh ingredients and drizzle some flavor-packed toppings. The whole thing comes together in minutes, and the presentation alone is enough to impress a crowd.
Plus, tomatoes are good right now—and they're only getting better. Peak-season heirlooms are sweet, tangy and juicy, so this trend isn’t just aesthetic. It’s built around flavor, and that’s why it works.
6 Fun Ways To Build Your Tomato Flights
What makes tomato flights so fun is the variety. Like any good tasting board, each bite offers something different. There are tons of ideas online (as you can see by a quick TikTok search), but here are six delicious topping ideas to get you started.
2. Cottage Cheese, Hot Honey and Chives
This combo is a creamy meets spicy-sweet dream. The cottage cheese adds protein and tang, while the hot honey brings unexpected heat.
4. Hummus, Za’atar and Olive Oil
Go in a Middle Eastern direction with this combo of creamy hummus and the sesame-studded za'atar spice blend. Finish it all off with a drizzle of olive oil—this is the time to use the good stuff.
6. Avocado, Chili Crisp and Lime
Tomato and avocado are a power couple. Add crunchy, spicy chili crisp and a hit of tangy lime and take things up a notch.
How To Set up a Tomato Flight
This trend is so easy. All you really need are tomatoes, a cutting board, a knife and some toppings. Want to make it even more fun? Add mini signs or labels so guests know what they’re trying. Serve with cocktail forks or slices of crusty bread or crackers, and let everyone build their own bite.
