The first time I made this incredible salad with lamb kabobs last summer. It was so fresh and light and tasty. I've made it today paired with a stuffed pork loin. I added a touch more basil to the dressing because my household loves basil. This salad is incredible, bursting with fresh, light flavors. I love making it, and will make it again and again.

When I blended the buttermilk dressing with the tomatoes, the aroma was amazing, but I must say that the taste was even better. Usually I make these recipes and they don't taste as good as they sound, but that is definitely not the case with this recipe. The taste is beyond better than it sounds!!!
