GREEN TOMATO SALAD WITH RUSSIAN DRESSING
This salad is inspired by one that Los Angeles-based chef Mark Peel serves at his wonderful restaurant, Campanile. Green tomatoes go well with Russian dressing. My version combines mayonnaise with yogurt, and if I don't make the mayonnaise myself, I always use Hellmann's (called Best in Western states) because it isn't sweet.

Steps:
- Toss together the tomatoes, vinegar and olive oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Line an oval or round platter with the tomato slices, overlapping them slightly and sliding in a red tomato slice at regular intervals.
- Whisk together the mayonnaise, yogurt and ketchup. Stir in the capers and red onion. Spoon the dressing over the tomatoes. Sprinkle on the parsley, garnish with hard-boiled egg wedges, and serve.
