I
bought some beautiful heirloom tomatoes and Walla Walla onions from the
farmer’s market the other day.
I
wanted to make something that would showcase both flavours so I decided to make
a simple marinated salad.
3
or 4 heirloom tomatoes, chopped
1
small Walla Walla onion, sliced into half moons
2
tbsp. fresh basil, chopped
2
tbsp. red wine vinegar
2
tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1
small garlic clove, minced
Salt
and Pepper to taste
Whisk
together the vinegar, olive oil, garlic and salt and pepper. Gently toss with
the tomatoes and onions. Let the salad sit for 15 minutes before serving.
This
salad would go wonderfully with just about anything. Fresh summer tomatoes are
one of my favourite things so I could eat this salad every day.
The
Walla Walla onions are so sweet and mild, they made a perfect addition.
