Notes
- Best Tomatoes to Use
- The variety of tomatoes you use is less important than the ripeness and sweetness of the tomatoes. It truly makes the biggest impact on this salad.
- Heirloom tomatoes are our favorite choice since they tend to be the most vibrant in color and rich in flavor. You can also use cherry tomatoes, grape tomatoes, or even Roma tomatoes. These varieties tend to be meatier and less watery than other varieties. Mix it up for a unique look and flavor profile, using some red, purple, yellow, and orange tomatoes!
