Bacon-Stuffed Cherry
Tomatoes
Recipe By :salliejo
Categories : Veggies
1 pound bacon
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup green onions
1 pint cherry tomato
Cook bacon until very crisp.
Crumble up bacon and mix with mayonnaise (add more if you need
it) and green onions.
Cut off top and scoop out inside of cherry tomatos. (Trick to
make tomatos stand still cut a small sliver off the bottom).
Fill with bacon mixture. Better when they sit a while so the
flavors meld and they taste like a little BLT without the L!
The carb count for a cherry tomato
is .8 per tomato with .2 fiber, but you are scooping out the
guts so it should be less. So under 1 carb per treat. I used
to serve them for parties and never had any left. Enjoy.
>From Dawn:
I make this too but instead of mayonnaise, I use a package of
cream cheese. I cut the tomatoes in half, scoop out the insides,
sprinkle them with salt and pepper and let them drain cut side
down on papertowels. You have to whip the cream cheese until
light & fluffy (use a bit of heavy cream to thin out the
mixture) and then mix in the onion and bacon. I use a pastry
bag to fill the cups to give a nice finishing touch. If you use
a bag, then you have to make sure the onion and bacon are chopped
fine so they can pass through the pastry tip. Or, you can fill
them with a teaspoon.
