Rachel's FAVORITE Marinated Tomatoes

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs vine-ripened tomatoes
  • Marinade:
  • 1 small red onion, diced very small
  • a large handful of fresh basil leaves, finely chopped
  • a large handful of fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
  • 4 fresh garlic cloves, minced
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar, or apple cider vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp raw honey
  • sea salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. 1

    Carefully cut your tomatoes into 1/3-inch thick slices. A good mandolin will slice them evenly, but a sharp knife works too. Arrange them nicely onto a large rimmed platter or in a large serving dish.

  2. 2

    Lightly season with sea salt and pepper to your personal taste.

  3. 3

    In a small mixing bowl combine all of your marinade ingredients and whisk together really well. Drizzle or spoon your fresh marinade equally over your sliced tomatoes as shown.

  4. 4

    Cover and refrigerate to allow the flavors to blend and develop.

  5. 5

    Can be refrigerated for 1 hour up to overnight. Best eaten within a few hours though.

  6. 6

    Enjoy!
