RED AND YELLOW HEIRLOOM TOMATO PLATTER WITH BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE
Summer on a platter! This salad is lovely in it's rustic simplicity. The tarragon adds a delicate anise note, different than the usual basil and tomato combination. Just add crusty chunks of bread to soak up the aromatic dressing, it's practically a meal in itself. Enjoy...

EASY TOMATO BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE
I can't take credit for this recipe. A friend of mine who is a chef gave me this and I love it. Serve over grilled vegetables, fish and of course your favorite salad greens. One note, using a tube of the "double-concentrated" tomato paste really does make a big difference, as well as using an aged Balsamic. But I have made it with every day Balsamic and "standard" tomato paste and it still is pretty tasty. I think the rice vinegar is very important to use, and shouldn't be substituted in this recipe.

Steps:
- Dressing -- Just mix everything together and refrigerate until ready to use. I use a small tupperware container and shake all the ingredients. That way if you have leftovers, it is a great way to store them.
- ENJOY!
