Croatian Tomato Salad

I eat a remarkably fresh salad on my European travels. The idea of eating this salad in this phenomenal heatwave in the US is temptation enough for me to source the ingredients. 

Backyard cherry tomatoes, orange and yellow peppers, red onion, feta and a slew of pomegranate arils are doused in an orange lemon vinaigraitte. Find a fork and dig in!


CROATIAN TOMATO SALAD

Serves 4


1 heaping cup of Cherry Tomatoes, halved

1 mini Yellow Pepper, seeded and chopped 

1 mini Orange Pepper, seeded and chopped

1/4 cup thinly sliced Red Onion

1/4 cup Feta, crumbled

Basil Leaves

1/4 cup Orange Juice

2 tablespoons Lemon Juice 

4 tablespoons extra virgin Olive Oil

Kosher Salt 

Ground Black Pepper


Place the tomatoes, peppers, onion, pomegranate and feta in a bowl. 

Whisk orange juice, lemon juice, olive oil and a little salt to amke a dressing.  Pour over the salad.

It is amazing that this salad is so refreshing! The heat goes on the backburner!
