Tomatoes with Basil, Peppers and Blue Cheese
Source: Kathy Meade

3 tomatoes -- coarsely chopped
1/2 onion -- chopped
1 pepper, hot or sweet -- chopped
4 basil leaves -- chopped
1/2 cup blue cheese -- crumbled
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper -- to taste

Put vegetables in bowl. Mix dressing ingredients and pour over vegetables. Chill in refrigerator for at least one hour.

NOTES: This salad can be varied by using different cheeses, feta,, mozzarella, jack, brie all work as well as the blue varieties. Also you can try different vinegars or oils. Sometimes I use the garlic herb vinegar that I made. Also try different oils. We liked it with a mildly hot banana pepper.
