Ingredients
- 3 -4 large ripe tomatoes
- 1 medium sweet onion depending on how much onion you like (Vidallia is my favorite)

- 4 -6 leaves fresh basil chopped to garnish (depending on how much basil you like)
Instructions
- Clean, core, and cut the tomatoes into about eight wedges. Add the tomatoes to your bowl or serving plate.
- Next, slice the onion in half lengthwise from top to bottom. Peel the skin of the onion and use a sharp knife to slice into thin strips. Add to the tomatoes.
- Sprinkle on the salt, dried oregano, and freshly ground pepper. Drizzle on the extra-virgin olive oil. Toss gently to combine. If using fresh basil, add on some slivers.
