Fresh Tomato Basil Salad

This is great to have for lunch, dinner or for a picnic. Ideal for when you get your fresh summer tomatoes right out of the garden. Super easy and can be served with warm crusty bread or as a side dish. Slice your tomatoes, cucumber, sweet onion. Then in a bowl - chop coarsely a few cloves of fresh garlic, some fresh ground black pepper, 1/2 tsp celtic salt, 2 T red wine vinegar & a 1/3 c extra virgin olive oil. Toss in your veggies, mix lightly and add fresh basil. I like to stack the leaves then roll them and slice for long strings of basil. Toss well & serve. YUM!!!
