Cherry Tomato and Cheese Salad

Submitted by *Parsley*

"Use up those garden cherry tomatoes! This is best eaten within 24 hours of making. Measure the cherry tomatoes after cutting in in half. You can always use the full-fat variety of sour cream and mayo if you don't mind the extra fat."

Great salad that hit the spot for a quick lunch! Thank you Parsley! Oh, I used grape tomatoes, couldn't find my tarragon, so left it out. I really enj;oyed this!

I would give this more than 5 stars if possible, it's so good. Tomatoes are at a premium right now, but this was well worth it. I did use regular sour cream and mayo, that was what I had on hand. Flavors blended great. I had a family dinner and served with my family recipe of spaghetti Recipe #174527 and beans Recipe #218315, everyone loved the salad.

If I could give this more than 5 stars, I would! This was delicious!! Loved the dressing!! Used low-fat sour cream and mayo and some red wine vinegar. Prepared it a couple of hours before lunch - this salad was PERFECT!! Thanks Parsley! :)
