Tomato Salad in Surprise

Peel a nice large tomato and empty its contents; then take some cold slaw and celery hashed up very fine and mix it with mayonnaise dressing, add a pinch of salt and a pinch of paprika pepper. Mix it well and fill the tomato with this mixture. The tomato must be served very cold so as to have this salad a success. Use one tomato for each guest.
