I thought this salad was just okay. The dressing was a little too acidic for my taste.

This basil tomato salad was a refreshing and flavorful side dish. The combination of sweet tomatoes, fragrant basil, and tangy dressing was perfect. I especially liked the addition of the pine nuts, which added a nice crunch.
