Marinated Cherry Tomatoes
Fresh Marinated Tomatoes with garlic, lemon and red onion.
Ingredients
1/2 lb cherry/grape tomatoes
1/2 red onion, finely sliced
5 garlic gloves, grated into paste or finely chopped
4 tbs red wine vinegar (apple cider works well as a sub, but changes recipe flavor)
3 tbs Olive oil (sub: avocado oil)
fresh or dried basil to taste
salt & pepper to taste
juice of 1/2 lemon
Instructions
Quarter your grape/cherry tomatoes
Slice onion into thin strips.
Peel garlic and mince into a paste. Add to a bowl with your veggies.
Drizzle olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice over mixture
Sprinkle in salt, pepper, and fresh (or dried) basil; to taste.
Mix to coat the tomatoes and allow to sit at room temperature for 1-2 hours, stirring occasionally.
Enjoy at room temperature.
Store leftovers in an airtight jar in the refigerator for up to 2 days. Mixture will start to loose the ‘fresh from the garden’ crispness after 1 day.
Notes
These marinated tomatoes can be served as a summer snack or light lunch over greens.
