Notes

๐Ÿ’ก Use ripe, in-season Roma or cherry tomatoes for the sweetest flavor and best texture.
๐Ÿ’ก Always choose sugar-free balsamic glaze or pure aged balsamic vinegar to keep carbs in check.
๐Ÿ’ก Slice tomatoes and let them rest on paper towels for 10 minutes before assembling to prevent a watery salad.
