Notes
- Serving size: one tomato - however many slices you get out of one tomato
- Dill: If you do not like dill, you don't have to use it. You can swap it with fresh basil. It is also absolutely delicious if you don't like dill.
- Use avocado oil in place of olive oil
- Use ripe but hard-to-the-touch tomatoes; do not use soft/mushy tomatoes
