Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the chopped tomato, red onion, parsley, and capers.
Grab another small bowl and whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper.
Pour the zesty dressing over your tomato mixture and gently toss with a fork or spoon, ensuring everything gets a delicious coat.
Take a taste! Feel free to adjust the salt and pepper to your liking.
Notes
Use the best quality tomatoes you can find. Ripe, flavorful tomatoes will make all the difference in the taste of your salad.
Adjust the quantity of onions, capers, and garlic to suit your palate.
Don't overdress the salad. You want the flavors of the tomatoes to shine through.
If you have time, let the salad sit for 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
