This heirloom tomato salad is such an easy little dish to make. It is great as a side dish, but you can also serve it with burrata slices of mozzarella and bread, as a delicious lunch.
Heirloom tomatoes are very tasty. Buy them locally grown and preferably organic. I like them in mixed colors it makes the salad look beautiful and tasty.
