Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 2 tomatoes (about the size of plums) (washed, dried, sliced into thin rounds)
  • 1 sweet onion (Maui, Vidalia or Walla Wallas)* (peeled and sliced very thinly)
  • 10 large basil leaves, (washed and dried)
  • 1 tablespoon crumbled blue cheese,
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instruction

  • Arrange tomatoes and onions. Alternating between the tomato and onion slices, arrange them on a round plate. Add a basil leaf here and there between them, and then sprinkle the blue cheese over the top.
  • Reduce the vinegar. Add the balsamic vinegar to a very small sauté pan and place it over medium-high heat. Cook until it thickens and reduces by about half.
  • Assemble. Drizzle the reduced balsamic and grind a bit of the salt pepper over the tomatoes and onions and serve.
