Cherry Tomato Salad

"This is a nicely-flavored simple salad that I love and make often in the summer. My husband is not as crazy about tomatoes as I am, but he will eat seconds of this dish. I clipped the recipe out of a newspaper several years ago."

  1. Reading the other reviews, I couldn't resist buying a cucumber to toss into this salad. I worried that there might not be enough dressing to coat the addition, but it wasn't a problem; I put the whole cucumber in. I tasted a spoonful before putting it in the refrigerator to meld and thought this wasn't going to be a keeper... the mayo was a little overpowering. But after sitting for 3 hours, it was surprisingly perfect when it came out... like magic! The cuke was a perfect addition - I cut fat slices and then quartered them.
     
  2. This recipe is a keeper. My husband and I both love it. I use yellow mustard as we are not a fan of Dijon mustard and I use a pomegranate infused red wine vinegar. I sometimes add cucumbers or bell peppers to it. Or sometimes I just use cucumbers. I make this at least twice a week now. I wish I could give it more stars!!
     
  3. Perfect for our summer dinner on the back deck with another couple. I added cucumber slices to the recipe and it was delightful. Very refreshing. I made it earlier in the day and let it "marinate" in the fridge until time to serve. Everyone loved it. No leftovers at all.
     
  4. I loved this salad! Perfect for summer; and the dressing is amazing.
     
  5. I made this last night for the 2nd time to take for lunch today. Excellent!! I let it marinate longer this time and it was much more flavorful. I might try it with cucumber added and basil instead of parsley next time. It is perfect as is though! Thank you for posting.

  3. Very good! I used green onion instead of red, omitted the parsley, and used spicy brown mustard instead of dijon.
     
  4. I used my homegrown cherry tomatoes for this recipe. Mmmmmmm! Delicious! I used cilantro in place of the parsley. I will definitely make this again. Thanx!
