Easy summer salad with baked tomatoes.
I just love rucola salad with baked vegetables like these perfect baked tomatoes. It gives such a good flavour and smell to the salad. With tomatoes they needs very little to be done. As a result I think it tastes best in very simple meals, like this delicious salad.
The aim of this salad is to let every delicious ingredient speak for itself, no one flavour dominates but instead each mouthful is just perfectly balanced.
Last time it made this salad with this easy tzatziki recipe. Just a really good combo! I really hope you can use this simple summer rucola salad recipe. Let me know if you have any questions.

First, make the tomato dressing: mix together olive oil, maple syrup, pressed garlic and salt & pepper.
