Tomato Sandwiches

Ingredients

• 2 medium Ripe red tomatoes (Choose very ripe tomatoes for the best flavor.)
• 4 slices Bread (Use your favorite type of bread.)
• 2 tablespoons Butter (Softened.)
• 1 teaspoon Mustard (Yellow or Dijon mustard.)
• 1 tablespoon Cress (Or other sprouts, finely chopped.)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil (Extra virgin olive oil.)
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (Freshly ground.)
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt (To taste.)
• 0.25 cup Fresh parsley (For garnish (optional).)

Instructions

1. 1Cut the tomatoes into thin slices, cutting parallel with the core to avoid the core dropping out.
2. 2Butter the bread slices. Spread mustard on the buttered slices and sprinkle with cress.
3. 3In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, pepper, and salt.
4. 4Dip the tomato slices into the dressing. Place the dressed tomato slices between the bread-and-butter slices.
5. 5Cut the sandwiches into squares or triangles with a sharp knife. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. For an extra refreshing touch, chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving.
