I varied the recipe a bit by using small (not cherry) tomatoes from the farmers market and quartered them. I used 14 for 7 people. I also reduced the basil to two cups, which was plenty. Next time I will add a bit of red onion or shallots and maybe some feta or goat cheese. Easy and excellent.
Added crumbled feta cheese on top for some protein. Reduced salt by 1/2 tsp. A very flexible and delicious recipe.
