This tomato salad recipe with basil and feta is a delicious side dish and great to take-along to a party or gathering. With a loaf of crusty French bread tomato salads are a fresh and summery meal. Tomatoes in a salad are a beautiful and yummy way to bring your garden to the table. Tomatoes contain lycopene, often connected to reduced incidence of prostate cancer. Tomatoes also contain vitamin C, potassium and folate. In this video Rita also talks about different types of basil, oregano and thyme. A bit different than a traditional Caprese salad, this tomato salad uses feta to give it a kick. Rita also uses her "once a week" vinaigrette -- a staple at her house on salads of any kind.
