For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the tomatoes lightly before adding them to the salad. If you don't have goat cheese, feta or another crumbly cheese works well. Fresh herbs are key to making this salad shine. Don't be afraid to experiment with other herbs like parsley, mint, or dill. Taste and adjust the dressing to your liking. You may want to add a touch more honey for sweetness or vinegar for tanginess.
