Magic Marinated Tomato Salad

Step 1: Prepare the Tomatoes

1. Wash the tomatoes thoroughly.
2. Slice them into ¼-inch thick rounds.
3. Arrange the slices on a serving platter.

Step 2: Make the Dressing

1. In a small bowl, whisk together:
   • Olive oil
   • Lemon juice
   • Red wine vinegar
   • Honey (if using)
   • Dijon mustard (if using)
   • Minced garlic
   • Oregano
   • Salt and pepper
2. Whisk until the dressing is smooth and well combined.

Step 3: Add the Fresh Herbs

1. Stir the chopped green onions, parsley, and dill into the dressing.
2. Mix well so the herbs are evenly coated.

Step 4: Assemble the Salad

1. Spoon the herb dressing generously over the tomato slices.
2. Make sure every slice is coated with the flavorful marinade.

Step 5: Marinate

1. Cover and refrigerate for 20–30 minutes.
2. This allows the tomatoes to absorb all the fresh garlic and herb flavors.

Step 6: Serve

• Serve chilled or at room temperature.
• Enjoy with grilled chicken, steak, fish, burgers, or toasted crusty bread to soak up the delicious dressing.

Tips

• Use ripe vine, Roma, heirloom, or garden-fresh tomatoes for the best flavor.
• Add sliced cucumbers, avocado, or crumbled feta cheese for extra variety.
• Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds or grated Parmesan for a different twist.
• Best enjoyed the same day it’s is made, though leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.

This simple marinated tomato salad is fresh, vibrant, and full of flavor—one of those recipes you’ll want to make all summer long! 🍅🥗
