How to Make Marinated Tomato Salad
- Prepare the tomatoes: Wash and cut tomatoes into bite-sized pieces.
- Make the marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Combine: Pour the marinade over the tomatoes, toss gently to coat evenly.
- Add herbs: Stir in chopped fresh herbs and optional ingredients like onions or feta.
- Marinate: Let the salad sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes — or refrigerate for a few hours for deeper flavor.
- Serve: Enjoy as a fresh side dish or light snack.
Tips for the Best Marinated Tomato Salad

- Let the salad marinate long enough to allow the flavors to meld but serve it within a day for the best texture.
- Experiment with different vinegars or add a touch of honey for a sweet balance.
