Tomato Onion Salad

There's really nothing simpler than this salad. The colours are really outstanding together. It might not taste as satisfying as a pizza or burger, but it's still good, especially when you use the homegrown tomatoes. Heirloom tomatoes would be even better. You can also throw in Feta, or buffalo Mozzarella or your personal favourite cheese. Eat some salads, they are good for you!
