This is wonderful when you can grab your tomatoes straight off the plant....Simple and easy. I suggest you only use fresh parsley and basil for this. Prep time does not include the 30 minutes the cheese spends in the freezer :)
Ingredients:
4 ounces gorgonzola cheese
1/4 cup parsley, fresh, minced
3 tablespoons shallots, minced
2 tablespoons basil, fresh, minced
6 medium tomatoes, thinly sliced
1/3 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
salt and freshly ground pepper
Directions:
1. Place the cheese in the freezer for 30 minutes. (Makes it easier to grate).
2. Grate the cheese into a small bowl. Add the parsley, shallot and basil, stirring gently to combine.
3. Arrange the tomato slices on a large serving platter or on 6 individual salad plates. Sprinkle the cheese mixture over the tomato slices.
4. Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste. Beat with a wire whisk. Drizzle the dressing over the salad.
