Don\u2019t you just wish it is always tomato season? This time of the year tomatoes are so sweet and juicy, and I feel like I try to include them in every dish I make. Up until a few years back, I hated tomatoes, I know! Sometimes, I can\u2019t believe it either. However, recently I figured out why I hated tomatoes most of my life. It is because tomatoes out of season, taste horrible and have a floury texture which I absolutely hated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means now is the perfect time to be doing this salad. I had twice already this week and been having it appearing constantly on my table for the past few weeks. It is so good on its own, but also perfect to accompany your BBQ or served next to your protein of choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make this salad I used different types of grape and cherry tomatoes because it is what tasted best at the time. However, use whatever you have available, any variety of tomatoes at its peak season would taste brilliant in this salad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though the salad is simple, the flavors are anything but. Allowing the tomatoes to marinate for half an hour or so, gives this dish a depth of flavor like no other. Not to mention that adding the salt feta and the crunchy pita bread will add to the burst of flavors in this salad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
