Tomato Salad With Walnuts And Cheese
Recipe courtesy: California Walnuts
Serves: 2
Ingredients
For the dressing
Method
Editor's Note: This recipes calls for heirloom tomatoes which are some of the freshest tomatoes. Try sourcing the larger ripe tomatoes. Also, add a couple of semi-ripe yellow and orange tomatoes for a vibrant platter.
Instead of blue cheese, a few tbsp feta cheese will do fine or crumbled paneer mixed with feta cheese. Ricotta cheese would also be a good substitution.
If you are partial to a little sweetness in your salad, add a tsp honey or jaggery in the dressing or Totapuri mango pieces or a few peeled sgements of tangerines with the tomatoes.
