Low GI recipe: Kiwi and Tomato Salad

The fresh basil and flavored vinegar impart a colorful summery-Mediterranean flavor to this simple salad. It's very low glycemic.

Serves 4
Prep time: 10 minutes

2 large ripe tomatoes, sliced
2 kiwi , peeled and sliced
2 TB. coarsely chopped fresh basil
2 TB. olive oil
1 TB. flavored vinegar, your choice. I used a sweet wine vinegar infused with lavendar.
2 TB. shredded Parmesan

1. On a serving platter, arrange tomato and kiwi slices, alternating them.
2. Sprinkle basil on slices. Sprinkle on olive oil, vinegar and Parmesan.
