Tomato salad with basil and garlic
Description
Perfect for everyday meals. If you prepare this salad without feta cheese, it will be perfectly summery, but with feta it instantly turns into a bright, original, all-season salad. Each ingredient here is essential—basil pairs wonderfully with tomatoes, enhancing and complementing their flavor, while garlic makes the taste complete. You can substitute feta with brined cheese (like brinza), which will make the salad slightly saltier and very piquant. Garnish as desired and serve.
