Photo: Quick-Marinated Cherry Tomato Salad Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 pint red grape tomatoes
- 1 pint yellow grape tomatoes
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
- 1 heaping tablespoon jarred pesto
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- 1 clove garlic, pressed
- Salt and fresh ground black pepper
- 1 head iceburg lettuce, cut into chunks
Directions
Halve the tomatoes and add them to a large zipper bag with the sliced red onion. Add the olive oil, balsamic, parsley, pesto, sugar, garlic and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Seal the bag, getting all the air out. Place into the fridge until ready for dinner.
Place the iceberg lettuce in a large bowl and pour on the tomatoes. Toss and serve! (The dressing from the tomatoes becomes the salad dressing.)

This was really delicious! I added cucumbers to the tomato mixture about an hour before serving. Poured it all over chopped romaine and grated some parmesan over top. I will be making this a lot in the future!

This was a BIG hit at my dinner party. Served it with Saucy Shrimp and Scallops over Angel Hair and crusty bread. I will use this recipe over and over again. WONDERFUL!

Oh WOW! what a great way to use tomatoes. I took this to my quilting guild yesterday and we all loved it. It is so easy to fix and take. Just left them in the bag till I was ready to serve and poured into bowl. I let the girls put their own onto salad greens.
Keep on coming Ree with all these easy and comfort foods.
Regards,
joan
