Serving size about one cup.

Substitutes:

Tomatoes: Use any small cherry tomatoes, or your next option will be vine-ripe tomatoes

Onions: Red onion works best, but you can also use white sweet onions

Oil: Avocado or olive oil. Grapeseed oil is also ok

Vinegar: We love balsamic, but you can also use red wine vinegar.

Seasoning: if you don’t have any Italian seasoning handy, use these other herbs to make some: dried parsley, basil, oregano, thyme, and rosemary.

Storage:

Place leftovers in a container and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days. Serve cold. We do not recommend freezing.
