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
