Spicy Cherry Tomato Salad

Cherry tomatoes may not be the ones we spend our winters dreaming about, but what they lack in size they make up for in timeliness. They're there for us when we want them, both early in the season, late, and in between. The combination of green onion, garlic, cumin and jalapeño in this recipe will make your taste buds tingle. If you're using a supersweet variety like "Sun Gold," you can cut back on the sugar or eliminate it entirely.
4 cups cherry tomatoes — halved
1/3 cup green onion thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeño, thinly sliced
1/3 cup white balsamic vinegar
tablespoon brown sugar
tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Combine 1st 4 ingredients and set aside. Combine the rest and stir until blended...toss over tomato mixture
