A classic dish that is easy to make quickly and is very sweet with olives and tomatoes. Best to have during the summer when the freshest vine tomatoes are available.

- Chop 2-5 garlic cloves (if you like a lot of garlic 6 cloves works well(
- Add some fresh parsley (optional)
- Drain 3 tablespoons of capers
- Throw all ingredients into a large bowl
