Directions
TREENA'S VINAIGRETTE
Place the tomato slices in a pie plate - you should be able to get two layers.
Make Treena's Vinaigrette by beating all the ingredients together in a blender until the garlic is dissolved - about 1 minute. Pour over the tomatoes, sprinkle with the pepper, then turn the top layer over so the pepper gets distributed throughout both layers, and let sit for 3 minutes.
Arrange the tomatoes in an overlapping line down the centre of a long serving platter. Put the Belgian endive leaves in the dressing and toss until coated.
Tuck the endive leaves along either side of the tomatoes. Scatter with the chopped green onion and serve.
