Very good vegan side dish. Easy to put together and can be made ahead of time easily. Also Christmasy colors! Thank you for sharing!

This tomato salad is SO good!! I take it to potlucks and like to serve it with a BBQ supper! After reading these reviews I need to remember to add mozzarella or Feta cheese just before serving!

This is a very pretty and easy dish to make. After 1st making it I was worried if the garlic would overpower the flavors, but I let it marinade for several hours and it was very tasty. I ended up using cherub tomatoes and cut them in half. Before serving I sprinkled feta cheese on top. Wonderful side dish for Italian dishes! TOH Field Editor

Thanks for this recipe! Everyone in my family of five really enjoyed it. I did substitute balsamic vinaigrette for the plain white wine vinegar, as I couldn't really fathom the idea of a salad with just vinegar and no oil. I did not add any cheese, but I think it would definitely be a nice addition. Maybe some marinated bocconcini (the little mozzarella balls)? Or feta. I think next time I will also use good marinated Greek olives rather than canned. Thanks again!

I use the drained oil from the artichokes to make a dressing. Throwing it away is absolutely wasteful!
