Tomato and Red Pepper Salad recipe

Made this tonight. Very good! I did not have fresh basil leaves on hand so I used other greens.

Selection of salad leaves
Fresh basil leaves, I used around 5 tiny ones from the plant I have on my windowsill.
2 tomatoes, look for vibrantly red ones, or ones on the vine.
1 red pepper, diced.
1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons of lemon juice
METHOD

Wash the salad leaves, basil, tomatoes and pepper. Rip the lettuce into more bite sized chunks, and tear the basil.
Thinly slice the tomatoes, and dice the red pepper.
Add the veg to a large bowl. Then add the vinegar, lemon and olive oil, thoroughly coat the veg in the dressing and serve.
