Notes
Cooking Tips:
- Use a variety of tomatoes for extra color and flavor
- Use good quality extra virgin olive oil, trust us, you WILL notice the difference.
- Use good-quality balsamic vinegar, not the balsamic glaze (it’s too sweet for this recipe)
- Go easy on the seasoning; a little goes a long way to bring out the salad flavors.
- Prepare this salad right before serving; it goes soggy if prepared too far in advance.
