Summer salad with tomato dressing is a vibrant embodiment of freshness and lightness of Italian cuisine. It delights the eye with the multicolored seasonal vegetables, and its taste is a harmony of sweet bell pepper, juicy zucchini, and the gentle acidity of crushed tomatoes. This salad not only refreshes on a hot day but also perfectly complements main dishes, adding lightness and nutrition to them. It reminds of traditional Italian rustic appetizers where simplicity of ingredients meets the rich flavor of nature. The special charm of the dressing lies in its naturalness: tomatoes give a slight acidity to the dish while vegetable oil adds silkiness and depth. The salad works well as a standalone dish or as a side for meat or fish. A great choice for lovers of healthy and tasty food!
