Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 Large Tomatoes Sliced thick
  • 1/3 Cup Infused Olive Oil I used Blood Orange Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 3 Tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2-3 Tablespoons Chopped Fresh Herbs I used Basil, Thyme and Chives

Instructions
 

  • Slice tomatoes and place in a serving dish.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, honey, onion powder, and chopped herbs to make a vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper to your liking.
  • Pour vinaigrette over tomatoes, cover and allow to marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Occasionally, flip tomatoes to ensure each is coated in the vinaigrette. Serve.

Notes

It is best to let the tomatoes marinate at room temperature.
If placed in the fridge, the vinaigrette will solidify. Here's what you can do:
  1. Option 1: Allow enough time for tomatoes to reach room temp before serving, giving the vinaigrette time to return to liquid state. 
  2. Option 2: Keep the vinaigrette and tomatoes separate until ready to serve. Place the container of solidified vinaigrette in warm (not hot) water for 5-10 minutes to gently bring the marinade back to a liquid state. Then, whisk the marinade vigorously before serving to re-emulsify any separated ingredients. Pour over your tomatoes and serve.
