Mmm tomatoes! I only wish they tasted like fresh tomatoes off the vine. Is there anything like that in the world? I think not.
Lacking tomato plants and the right season, I suffered through some store bought cherry tomatoes. In all fairness, the little multicolored cherry tomatoes from Mexico work fine for now.
This is a nice salad. Refreshing. The vinaigrette is a standard mustard vinaigrette. I'd make this again - especially this summer when tomatoes are at their best.
Perfect Tomato Salad

Wash the cherry tomatoes. Slice them in half, and place in a large serving bowl.
In a small bowl or mason jar with a tight fitting lid, shake together the oiive oil, balsamic, garlic, mustard, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste until well combined.
Stir the dressing into the cherry tomatoes.
