Instructions

Add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, sea salt, and black pepper to a large bowl.
Whisk the vinaigrette vigorously until emulsified.
Add the quartered tomatoes, sliced white onion, and chopped fresh parsley to the same bowl.
Toss gently to coat with the vinaigrette.
Serve with extra freshly ground black pepper and enjoy!

Notes

This salad may seem very onion-heavy, but it works so well with the tomatoes! White onion isn’t as strong in flavor as yellow onion, and once it sits in the vinaigrette for a few minutes, it mellows out a lot.

Storing: Store the salad in an airtight container for 2-3 days. The tomatoes will release a lot of water, but the salad is even more delicious after sitting with the dressing for a while. I recommend letting it rest for 15 minutes before eating after you make it. When serving leftovers, let the salad come to room temperature for 10 minutes first, so it's not too cold.
