Recipe Introduction


We love this recipe for its simple, summer pleasure. Fresh sliced tomatoes paired with sweet Vidalia onions and a little chopped fresh, fragrant basil. This recipe is actually better if prepped a few hours ahead, which allows all the flavors to get cozy.




List of Ingredients




1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 large tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 medium-size sweet onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil


Recipe



Whisk together first 5 ingredients in a large bowl.

Arrange tomato and onion slices in rows in a serving dish.

Sprinkle with chopped basil, and drizzle evenly with marinade.

Cover and let stand at room temperature for at least 2 hours. Serve with a slotted spoon.
