Slice tomatoes and arrange on plate. Sprinkle with salt and set aside.
Combine cheese, yogurt, buttermilk, vinegar, chives, salt and pepper in a jar. Cover tightly and shake until well blended. If you prefer a smoother dressing, mix all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Transfer to a jar to store.
Drizzle dressing over tomatoes, and sprinkle with bacon.
Dressing will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator.
Notes
This dressing can also be used as a dip for fresh vegetables. It keeps in the refrigerator for 3 days.
