25 Minutes prep • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Lactose-free • Serves 4 - 6 • Ok to make-ahead: Steps 1 - 2

Heirloom tomatoes make the simplest and most elegant salad ever. You can select a variety of colors or all one color. The flavor is wonderful and the color is right up there with a Van Gogh painting. The simplest dressing is all you need to bring out the best flavor in these remarkable tomatoes.

Ingredients

2 - 4 Heirloom tomatoes, cut into wedges

1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped

1/2 cup Balsamic vinegar, reduced

Kosher salt and pepper to taste

Directions

(1) Reduce the vinegar: In a small saucepan bring the balsamic vinegar to a boil then turn the heat down to a simmer and cook until reduced by about half.

(2) Prepare the vegetables: Wash, dry, and slice the tomatoes into wedges. Chop the chives.

Make-ahead note: At this point, you may set the ingredients aside until you are ready to serve. Do not refrigerate tomatoes as they will lose some of their good taste.

(3) Finish: Put the tomato wedges on a serving plate, drizzle with the cooled balsamic reduction, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and chives.

(4) Serve: Serve immediately.
