INSTRUCTIONS
At the end of each month, The Cook & Kitchen Staff select some of the
best recipes sent to Recipe-a-Day during the month, and post them to
the entire membership. Today's offering is a savory salad or side dish
from Recipe-a-Day Member Miriam SS. If you've ever grazed your way
down a salad bar and sampled some marinated tomatoes, chances are
you've wondered how this delectable little dish was prepared. Miriam
has been kind enough to provide all of us with this classic
late-summer recipe. When presented with a splash of cottage cheese and
a breadstick or two, it provides a delightful light lunch. Prepare
marinade by combining olive oil, cider vinegar, basil, sugar, salt,
dry mustard, garlic powder, and black pepper in a mixing bowl. You may
opt to combine the ingredients in a blender, or at least utilize a
salad dressing shaker to thoroughly mix the oil and vinegar. In a
shallow serving bowl, arrange half the tomato slices in layer over
bottom. Scatter half the onion rings and parsley over tomatoes and
sprinkle lightly with marinade. Repeat layering process. Cover and let
stand at room temperature for 1 hour before serving. Refrigerate to
store, but serve at room temperature. Posted to
