3 large or 5 medium fresh tomatoes, thickly sliced

⅓ cup olive oil

¼ cup red wine vinegar

1 teaspoon salt, optional

¼ teaspoon pepper

½ garlic clove, minced

2 tablespoons chopped onion

1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley

1 tablespoon minced fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried basil

Arrange the sliced tomatoes in a large shallow dish. Combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, pepper, minced garlic, chopped onion and herbs in a jar. Cover tightly, and shake well. Pour the marinade over tomato slices.
Cover and refrigerate for several hours. Editor's Tip: If you made more marinade than you needed, just put the lid on the jar, and save it for a salad.
