Fresh is the word when describing this gem of a recipe. Serious taste here that makes you coming back for more. I made this tomato salad to accompany scallops and it was the perfect marriage. The lightness of the scallops and the freshness of the tomato, walla walla onion, the fresh mint from the back porch and the s&p sitting atop a thick sliced beef sized tomato was enchanting. I threw some fresh baby spinach leaves underneath and added a fork 
Yum plus here from the farm. Made for Everyday is a Holiday May 2009

This is as freshand light tasting as can be! I had no idea adding mint to such a simple combination would add so much. I used a Vidalia onion. Thank you for this wonderfully simple salad, Mikekey!

Great recipe. I made it with some fresh tomatoes that I grew myself. Much better than store bought. By the way, Vidalia onions are from GA (my home state) not TX. Fellow camper here to. Google RainbowRV

Great salad. I don't think I've ever had a tomato salad without some sort of vinaigrette before, but you don't need it for this simple fresh salad. Thanks mikekey!
