Directions
Marinated Tomatoes With Basil and Balsamic Vinegar, Fresh flavor with little effort, perfect for summer! Adapted from Southern Living magazine Cook time is chill time , I took this dish to a fish fry a couple of nights ago and came home with an empty bowl It really got rave reviews I only used 1/2 cup of the vinegar, as I don’t care for it when it is too strong used a pomegranite/balsamic vinegar that I had on hand and that worked out fine I also added about a quarter pound of real mozzarella cubed on top Very good use of seasonal fresh tomatoes and I think it would be very good with those little grape tomatoes for something different in the winter , This tomato salad is bursting with flavor I just picked my first vine-ripened tomatoes of the season yesterday (about 8 small ones) and I ran in to make this salad to accompany our dinner Soaking the red onions made their flavor more subtle, so they did not overpower the dish Loved the balsamic tang I served over sliced sourdough bread because that is what I had on hand, but definitely I recommend a thick, crusty bread as specified in the recipe or the sauce can make it soggy (I didnt let it get too soggy though– I devoured it so fast!!!) Definitely do the fresh parm cheese curls They’re yummy Thanks, Sharon I would definitely make this one again
