Donna got inspired again for delicious and pretty! What a great simple but elegant side dish or appetizer! While you might not be entertaining during this pandemic, you still deserve pretty and delicious food!
Ingredients:
20 Small Tomatoes (I used Jaune Flamme)
8oz Cream Cheese, softened or other yummy soft cheese like Sweet Rowen’s VT herb Farmers Cheese. (which could be a short cut, skipping the pesto)
4oz Pesto (Fresh Basil, cilantro or any of the pestos offered by GMG)
Salt & Pepper
20 Basil or herb Leaves
Directions:
Slice a tiny piece off of the bottom of each tomato, so that they can stand on a plate.
Slice the top off of each tomato.
Use a melon-baller to scrape out the inside of each tomato.
Mix the softened cream cheese with the pesto and add salt and pepper to taste.
Use a small spoon or icing bag to fill each tomato with the cream cheese mixture.
Add a basil leaf and replace the top on each tomato.
Serve, eat and enjoy!
