Start by rinsing your beefsteak or heirloom tomatoes under cold water. Cut them into wedges and place them in a large salad bowl. Thinly slice the red onion and chop the fresh parsley and basil.

In the same large bowl, add the tomato wedges, sliced red onion, chopped parsley, and basil. Gently toss the mixture with your hands or a wooden spoon.

Using a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, and minced garlic. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.

Pour the dressing over the tomato mixture in the large bowl. Toss gently until the salad is evenly coated in the dressing.
