      Jan, this is such a simple recipe, but it is one of the best! You have to have the best tomatoes and fresh basil to make a go of it. I have been haunting my farmer's market buying the most wonderful tomatoes. We have had this dish many times during the summer. The taste can't be beat. Thanks!

      Excellent! I used the most expensive olive oil we could find and it really does make a difference. Also, used tomatoes from our garden. Which is also a must! Used sea salt and fresh ground black pepper. DD liked it too. DH put some crumbled feta on his. I think I'll try fresh mozarella with mine next time. Thanks for the recipe!

      Delicious! I made this for my lunch and only used 2 big tomatoes from the Farmers Market. Very fresh tasting.

      I used homegrown tomatoes and basil and followed as per recipe. All I can say is quick, easy and so delicious and refreshing on a hot night! Ain't the simple things usually the best...... this is a must to try. Thanks Jan.

      My Ginsu that's been relegated to the back of the drawer has been waiting for his opportunity to shine! Made for Edn'8 A/NZ.

      Delicious! Didn't have any fresh basil...used basil olive oil & added mozzerella! Perfect combination of flavors.

      Yum Jan, tasted great and so simple! I used vine ripened tomatoes with a West Australian cold pressed extra virgin olive oil and freshly ground both the black pepper and sea salt. Next time I will try with tinned tomatoes, dried basil and vegetable oil (just joking).

      I have made this every summer for years. You are right it is important that the tomatoes are fresh (not store bought) and the basil is also fresh. I could eat this salad every day in the summer! Thanks for sharing! :)

      I made this scaled down to one tomato and served on toast for a late breakfast for myself. Very tasty, quick and easy. Used some beautiful olive oil that I received in a swap which gave this an extra special flavour. Thanks Jan!

      Was given some small truss tomatoes which are really good, so this was an ideal recipe to use with them. Plus, of course, had my own home grown basil and used my expensive olive oil. This turned out to be sime but really good. Thanks Jan.

      this is simply wonderful Jan! I used imported tomatoes from Australia - so juicy, flavorful. I scaled this down to 1 tomato serving, used 2 TB fresh basil, 1 tsp EV olive oil, a healthy pinch of salt and lots of freshly ground black pepper. Thanks for the fantastic recipe.

      I make this frequentely except I use cubed mozzerella also. It's a good light-tasting dish.
