Cherry Tomato
Caper Salad
 

2 Tbsp. Balsamic Vinegar
1 Tbsp. drained small capers
4 tsp. good olive oil (EVOO works well here)
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
6 fresh basil leaves chopped into small pieces (more or less to taste)
Bibb lettuce leaves (optional)

  Combine first 4 ingredients. Drizzle over cherry tomatoes and toss to coat. Let stand 15 - 60 minutes. Sprinkle basil over tomatoes and serve atop lettuce leaves. Notes: We use both red and yellow cherry tomatoes and serve in a small bowl without the lettuce leaves. Chill for about 20-30 minutes before serving.
