Marinated Tomatoes

Ingredients

  • 4 Tblsp. olive oil
  • 3 Tblsp. vinegar - I used balsamic
  • 2 tsp. dried basil OR fresh basil
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder OR fresh thin sliced garlic
  • Tomatoes - sliced thin
  • Salt

Preparation

(I personally am not good about specific measuring with this recipe. I just layer the ingredients with a dash or pinch of this and a dash of that.)
  1. I use a glass pie plate. This provides a nice flat marinating surface for the tomatoes.
  2. Start with olive oil
  3. Add fresh basil and break into penny size pieces
  4. Add thin sliced garlic
  5. Add thin sliced tomatoes
  6. Salt to taste
  7. Continue with layers 1 through 6
  8. Let it rest at least a couple of hours, if you can wait than long.

Time to eat!

I use the 'U-bake' bread. Bake the bread. Take the bread and soak it in the olive oil, add a piece of tomato, garlic & basil. Save some for others!
