GREEN TOMATO SALAD WITH RUSSIAN DRESSING



Green Tomato Salad With Russian Dressing image

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.
