Marinade:

Instructions
- Start by slicing the cherry tomatoes in half and add to the bowl.
- Chop the basil, and add both that and the pearl cheese to the same bowl.
- In another bowl or cup, mix the marinade ingredients together.
- Add over the salad and toss to coat the ingredients together.
- Serve and enjoy.
Notes
- Use ripe cherry tomatoes. The riper they are the sweeter the flavor. I also like to use rainbow tomatoes for a variety of color.
- Use fresh basil for a real burst of flavor. If you don't like basil, you can use another herb like parsley to add freshness.
- You can shake the dressing ingredients all together in a mason jar. You can then pour it striaght from the jar or store it in the fridge.
