Ingredients
Vegetables
- 12 oz ripe cherry or grape tomatoes
- ½ cup chopped green onion (adjust as desired)

Others
- 2 TBSP quality extra virgin olive oil
- ⅛ tsp sea salt, or to taste
- ⅛ tsp black pepper
- 2 TBSP fresh chopped parsley

Instructions
- Prepare the Tomatoes: Grab your tomatoes and chop them into halves or quarters depending on their size. This helps release their juices and enhances the flavor of the salad.
- Toss with Onions and Olive Oil: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes with the extra virgin olive oil, green onions, and red onions to create a flavorful base.
- Add Optional Ingredients: If using, add the chopped cucumber, cubed avocado, and crumbled feta cheese to the bowl. These add texture and creaminess to the salad.
- Season the Salad: Sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper, then taste and adjust the seasoning as desired. Additional onions or feta can be added to enhance flavors further.
- Garnish and Serve: Mix in the fresh chopped parsley as a bright garnish, then serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, vibrant flavors.
Notes
- Use ripe and firm cherry tomatoes for the best texture and flavor.
- The avocado is optional but adds a creamy texture and healthy fats.
- Adjust salt and pepper to your taste preferences.
- For more tang, add a splash of lemon juice or balsamic vinegar.
- This salad is best served fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 2 hours before serving.
