While the pine nuts are toasting, thinly slice the tomato into rounds. Very thinly slice the red onion. Thinly slice the basil leaves.
In a medium bowl, add a small drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Mix well. Add the mixed salad leaves, tomato, onion and grated Parmesan cheese. Toss to coat. TIP: Add less onion if you're not a fan of the raw flavour.
Transfer the Italian tomato salad to a serving plate. Drizzle over the balsamic & olive oil dressing and sprinkle with the toasted pine nuts. Garnish with the basil.
