 Well, here is my first attempt to duplicate the Vidalia Onion Summer
 Tomato Dressing we've been talking about.  AND, in MHO, this is even
 better, because it's not so darned sweet.
 
 Any can of tomatoes would be fine, and even better, will be some fresh
 garden tomatoes this summer.  This really does make a good fat free
 dressing, but everyone who makes it will probably come up with a
 slightly different formula.  I just guessed at the spices, seasonings,
 etc. and it really is fairly close.  Be sure to share your successes.

 Thanks for the prodding to get this done.  It's something I've been
 wanting to do since selling the stuff last summer.
