Ingredients:

• 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

• 1/4 cup kalamata olives, pitted and halved
• 2 tablespoons fresh oregano leaves
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons finely grated aged pecorino

Instructions:

1. Preheat your charcoal grill or gas grill.
2. Mix together the cherry tomatoes, red onion, kalamata olives, and oregano in a medium-sized bowl.
