TOMATO AND BLUE CHEESE SALSA

Another of my favorites, also out of a newspaper years ago. This is fantastic on steaks cooked on the grill, and as a dressing on baked potatoes. Use your imagination!!! I'm sure this would be just as good with other vegies, and chicken or fish.

Combine all the above ingredients in a medium bowl with a fork until ingredients are evenly coated with olive oil.
