Cucumber-stuffed Tomatoes

Ingredients

 * 2 green onions (or 1 very large one)
 * 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
 * 2 tsp olive oil
 * 2 tsp Sugar
 * 3/4 tsp salt
 * 3/4 tsp dried dill
 * black pepper to taste
 * 4 med tomatoes, very ripe
 * 1 large cucumber or 2 small ones
 * lettuce leaves

Directions
Add tomato pieces to the Onion and cucumber mixture and mix gently.
 * 1) Cut the white part of the onions lengthwise, then slice the white and green parts finely. Place in a glass or plastic bowl.
 * 2) Add vinegar, olive oil and seasonings and mix well.
 * 3) Wash and core the tomatoes.
 * 4) With a serrated knife, cut a thin slice off the top. Cut into the middle, around the inside, being careful not to get too close to the shell.
 * 5) With a teaspoon, scoop out the seeds and ribs inside the tomato, leaving a thin shell of flesh and skin. Turn upside down on a paper towel to drain.
 * 6) Place the insides in a plastic colander or strainer to drain.
 * 7) Peel the cucumber. Cut lengthwise, and scoop out most of the seeds. Chop or cube finely. Do NOT liquefy in a food processor or blender!
 * 8) Add cucumber to the Onion mixture and stir.
 * 9) Press on the tomato remnants in the colander to remove most of the moisture. Turn out onto a cutting board and chop.
 * 1) When ready to serve, fill the four tomato shells completely with the cucumber mixture.
 * 2) Make nests of torn lettuce leaves in individual salad bowls, then nestle a tomato in each bowl. Drain and spoon any leftover cucumber mixture onto the lettuce leaves, around the outside of the tomatoes.

Serve with Steak knives for ease in eating.
