Tomato and Red Onion Salad image

Take advantage of your tomato haul and create this simple -- and simply delicious -- summer salad.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 pounds small to medium red and yellow tomatoes, halved if small and quartered if medium
1 medium red onion, quartered and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup good-quality extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Gently toss together tomatoes, onion, parsley, and salt in a large bowl; season with pepper. Drizzle in oil, and toss to combine. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and flavorful tomatoes. This is the key to a great salad. Look for tomatoes that are bright red or yellow, and that have a firm texture.
  • Use a variety of colors and shapes. This will make your salad more visually appealing. Try using a mix of cherry tomatoes, grape tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes.
  • Add some fresh herbs. Herbs like basil, oregano, and thyme will add a pop of flavor to your salad. You can also use fresh chives or parsley.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Olive oil is a healthy fat that will help to enhance the flavor of the tomatoes. You can also use avocado oil or walnut oil.
  • Season your salad to taste. You can use a simple vinaigrette dressing, or you can add some salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
