Better than we expected! Will make this repeatedly as long as the garden lasts!
Excellent salad. I will be making this again.
Loved the delicious dressing.
I made this delectable salad today to serve at lunch to accompany a quiche. I used multi-color cherry tomatoes. I made the dressing with chives and tarragon because I didn't have fresh basil. The dressing is light and very flavorful. The salad was so easy to make, and I will definitely will be making this again.
Looking forward to making this again with fresh, local tomatoes. It was a nice change from a garden salad (especially for my husband) and easy to make.
Extremely refreshing and delicious. I love the dressing!
This was so fresh and tasty with the tomatoes and cucumbers I got at the farmers market!
l made this as part of a light lunch today. It was easy and delicious. Save this recipe for really good tomatoes -- they are the star.l made the full amount of dressing but 1/3 of the salad, for 2 large servings. I plan to marinate mushrooms in the leftover dressing.
This is wonderful! So fresh and easy to throw together. I couldn't stop picking at it.
