    Core tomatoes and cut into 1/4" dice.

    Stem, seed, remove ribs, and cut red bell pepper into 1/4" dice.

    Cook the Onion and Red Bell Pepper

    Place a medium pot over medium-high heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil.

    Add onion (reserve a pinch for garnish), red bell pepper, and a pinch of salt and pepper to hot pot.

    Stir occasionally until vegetables are softened, 3-5 minutes.
