This is the best tomato salad recipe for using up the harvest from your garden! Made with heirloom or beefsteak tomatoes, red onion, garlic, and basil, it’s perfect served with crusty bread for soaking up every last bit.
Variations
- Add fresh mozzarella for a Caprese-inspired salad.
- Toss in sliced cucumbers from the garden.
- Drizzle with a syrupy balsamic vinegar or glaze.
- Add avocado for a little creaminess.

Storage
This tomato salad is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. I like to let the salad come to room temperature before serving.
