Tomato & Watermelon Salad

 

You may or may not have thought of putting these two together, but it's a fantastic combination. I like to use grape or cherry tomatoes for this. Summertime is the best for getting the watermelon and tomatoes fresh from the market.

Halve about a cup of cherry or grape tomatoes.

Slice some fresh (seedless) watermelon into cubes, a little bit larger than the tomatoes.

Chiffonade (chef term for cut into ribbons) a couple leaves of fresh basil.

Reserve 1 to 2 teaspoons of balsamic vinegar.

Lightly toss the previous four ingredients in a bowl.

Serve on plates or bowls and tuck in!
