If you love tomatoes like I do, then you may enjoy this recipe. It's a quick side dish/plate filler that doesn't have too many ingredients, it's healthy and tastes nice. Original recipe calls for Roma and Plum tomatoes but I use what is in season. This recipe comes from a book called "Purely Golden Door" by The Golden Door Health Retreats.

I used cherry tomatoes and added a little but of mozzarella to it and made it to put on crackers. It was great, thanks.

    The combination of Campari tomatoes with the fresh basil, balsamic, fresh cracked pepper and kosher salt was a burst of summer goodness in every bite! It really couldn't have been easier and along with a bit of bread- it is all you need for a lite lunch that will truly satisfy. I can't wait to share this one with my family! Made for ZWT 4!

    Easy and delicious side dish. Hey I love fresh basil and balsamic vinegar on anything, but particularly tomatoes. The vinegar taste was evident but not overpowering. I cooked this for 30 minutes, which seemed perfect to me, but I could see some people wanting to give it a little extra time. Made for ZWT 2008, the Italian basil challenge. Thanks!
