Tomato Salad

This salad is so healthy because there is no dressing!

1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1 pint yellow pear tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
freshly ground black pepper to taste
ground red pepper to taste (cayenne)
salt to taste

In your small stoneware bowl, or bean pot, toss the cherry tomatoes, yellow pear tomatoes, green onions, garlic, basil, cilantro, black pepper, red pepper, and salt. Refrigerate 30 minutes and toss again before serving. Enjoy!

**You can use regular tomatoes in place of the cherry and pear. Best if tomatoes are ripe and juicy. If not, cut most of the tomatoes, then juice one or two before cutting. In the juice add the garlic then pour over the cut tomatoes. If you're using ripe, juicy tomatoes it will make it's own juice while sitting in the fridge for 30 minutes!
