    💡 Pro Tips

    • Use the best quality olive oil you can find — it makes all the difference in a simple salad.
    • Don't refrigerate the tomatoes; room temperature tomatoes have far more flavor.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I make this ahead of time?

    You can prep all the vegetables and store them separately, but dress the salad just before serving to keep it fresh and crisp.
