This Tomato Salad combines the best of summer’s harvest with sun-ripened fresh tomatoes, sweet red onions, garlic, and fresh basil in a simple oil and red wine vinegar dressing. This is one of my favorite summer salads, and it is the perfect side dish to serve during the hot summer months with grilled chicken, fish, and steak.
