Recipe View Serve Immediately: For the best texture and flavor, serve the salad immediately after preparation. The longer it sits, the more the tomatoes will release their juices, potentially making the salad slightly soggy.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.
If you don't have white cherry tomatoes, regular red cherry tomatoes will work just fine.
Feel free to add other fresh herbs like mint or cilantro for a different twist.
