Red Yellow Orange And Green Heirloom Tomato Salad Recipe


Red Yellow Orange And Green Heirloom Tomato Salad Recipe
This is the ultimate tomato lovers salad! Heirloom tomatoes are so full of flavor they need little embellishing. I sometimes add a sprinkle of mozzerella, feta, or blue cheese and chopped kalamata olives just before serving.

I bet this is tasty and beautiful! Nice post!


Yum. I love tomatoes and especially the heirloom ones. Great post.


Good salad for this summer thanks


A farmers market near us just started selling their heirloom tomatoes last year...FANTASTIC tasting, but oh so expensive (but worth the splurge when you can afford it!)...this salad sounds like a wonderful way to enjoy them, too.


Wonderful, delicious, colorful salad. I love it!


Yeah baby. They are easy to grow-Brandwine baby.
