My Herb Garden Salad With Golden Cherry Tomatoes

• 3 cups cherry tomatoes
• 1 cup Italian parsley leaves, minced
• 1/2 cup oregano leaves, minced
• 1 cup basil leaves, minced
• 1 cup mint leaves, minced
• 3 cloves garlic, peeled, smashed and minced
• 3/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or sherry vinegar (I make my own vinegar which is very balanced and mild)
• 1 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
• salt to taste
• fresh ground black pepper

1. After you have minced the parsley, oregano, mint and basil , mix in the oil, vinegar and red pepper flakes.
2. Put the cherry tomatoes into a large zip lock (freezer strength) baggie and using the flat side of a meat hammer, break all the tomatoes up. You can also use your hands to do this.(it's like popping bubble wrap)
3. Pour the tomatoes and all their juices into the herbal mixture and mix up with a fork. Salt and Pepper to taste.
