Wow, I guess I have to disagree with most of the reviews on here. It does need a dressing. It's very "earthy" (as my husband) said without some kind of "sauce". I added some balsamic vinegar and was able to eat it then, but on it's own it's just too dry.

This was very good--I like that the tomatoes were flavorful and juicy enough that it didn't need dressing. I omitted the basil because my plant was too bare. This even held up well the next day--I added avocado and it was a delicious combo.

Very good. Would be very appropriate served with chicken or fish. The yellow tomatoes make the dish!

Very nice! It was a brilliant idea actually. The herbs give it an itailian dressing taste without the oil. I used 4 Iowa grown tomatoes, got a lot of juice from that, and I threw in a couple handfulls grape tomatoes. Next time I am going to try cucumbers to give it a little more something. But otherwise, very good and a nice healthy option for my family!

Loved it! I also added lime juice and cucumbers which I thought complemented the recipe very well.

I used just regular, fresh, JERSEY tomatoes. Also, I used parsley instead of cilantro. This salad was delicous! Light, fresh and flavorful!

I was skeptical because there is no marinade, but this recipe was light and refreshing. I followed it exactly, except that I could not find the yellow pear tomatoes, so just substitued red. It was quick to make and a nice change to have the pure taste of the tomatoes not smothered in a lot of oil.

I never would have thought that it would be possible for a salad to have this much flavor without a heavy dressing! Ok, so I have not been able to find the yellow tomatoes but that's no problem. Just add extra red. I find that I'm still slightly nervous about the garlic getting distributed evenly so I still juice a few of the tomatoes into a little bowl and stir the garlic into that. Then pour over all. What a pleasure to find a wonderful, wonderful salad that the whole family loves and have it be fat free too! I've had this recipe for about 2 weeks and we've already had it 4 times. Thank you so much for sharing this!

This is good. I've tried many recipes since coming to the US and now that I have my own computer I can now start giving more reviews. We loved this. Fresh vegetables can not be beat.

This salad was very good! A bit salsa-ish, but an excellent use of excess garden bounty for sure. Thanks!
