What a great summertime salad. It was light and tasty. My guests liked the change! The best thing, it only took 10 minutes to make. I will make it again.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Storage Know-How

Store ripe tomatoes, stem-sides down, at room temperature. Keep ripe tomatoes away from direct sunlight and use them within a few days of purchase. It is best not to store tomatoes in the refrigerator since it causes the tomatoes to lose their flavor and become mushy. Only refrigerate extra-ripe tomatoes that are in danger of spoiling.
