For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a handful of fresh herbs such as basil, parsley, or oregano. If you prefer a creamier dressing, try using a blend of Italian dressing and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt. Adjust the amount of Italian dressing to your liking, depending on the acidity of your tomatoes. For a tangier salad, add a splash of red wine vinegar or lemon juice. Feel free to substitute the Parmesan cheese with crumbled feta cheese for a different flavor profile.
