In a spacious mixing bowl, mix together the tomatoes, red onion, fresh basil, olive oil, minced garlic, and generously season with salt and pepper to taste.

Allow the tomato blend to rest at room temperature for approximately 20 minutes, enabling the flavors to meld together (the tomatoes will release their juices, forming a natural dressing). Give it a good toss.

When it's time to serve, give the tomato mixture another toss and portion it into 4 bowls. Enjoy with some crusty bread if you like.
