Ingredients
- 2 small (about 1 to 1 & ¼ cups) tomatoes vine-ripened or Roma tomatoes
- ½ cup mayonnaise Duke's or Blue Plate
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper Freshly ground is best
- 1 cup Cheez-Its lightly crushed, or Goldfish crackers
- ⅛ teaspoon Italian seasoning or fresh basil, optional
Instructions
- Wash and dry tomatoes. Remove the stems and seeds, then dice the tomatoes. Place on paper towels to drain for up to 10 minutes. (Sometimes I'm in a hurry and don't drain them for 10 minutes, but the salad is really better if you can drain some of the tomato juice out.)
- Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to a medium bowl. (The Italian seasoning is optional. Honestly, sometimes I add it and sometimes I don't. You can also stir in fresh basil instead of the Italian seasoning.)
- Stir in the lightly crushed Cheez-Its. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed. Serve immediately.
