Field Pea & Tomato Salad with Sherry Vinaigrette & Herbed Crostini

Field peas and ripe tomatoes, two summer staple ingredients in the Southern kitchen, suit up in Mediterranean flair when tossed with basil and a bright sherry vinaigrette. The herbaceous bite of fresh basil complements the outfit like a stunning accessory, while crispy bread soaks up any delicious juices left on the plate. Putting to use some of the best ingredients the season has to offer, this dish is simple yet robust - and so very satisfying.
