This is like summer on a plate! The colors are so vibrant and healthy; now, I am getting very excited to plant my herb garden. The weather is finally warming up and I have plans to put in a variety of basil (which can be so expensive when buying at the grocery store). Your recipe has really brightened up my morning!

What a delicious sounding dish, I love the extra zing that grape tomatoes add and confess like the “pop” they can make when you bite into them.
