My neighbors brought over two huge, ripe heirloom tomatoes from their garden the other day. Since we were headed to visit with friends and have an evening dinner on the grill, I decided to make a salad out of these tomatoes to enjoy as a side dish. This is a simple way to highlight the wonderful flavor of garden fresh tomatoes! Enjoy it while the season is still upon us!
