Summer Stuffed Cherry Tomato Bites ♥

Summer is in full swing and  tomatoes are in season. Why not have a healthy treat try my goat cheese stuffed cherry tomatoes!  ♥




Ingredients  ♥

8 oz. chevre,( goat cheese)  softened
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp fresh basil, finely chopped
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 pints cherry tomatoes

Directions  ♥
In medium bowl, combine chevre, garlic, basil, salt and pepper.  Set aside.
Using a sharp knife, cut the very tops off of the cherry tomatoes.  Carefully cut around the ribs inside to loosen and scoop out seeds and interior membranes.  I found it best to use a very small spoon to scoop.
Using another small spoon, place 1 tsp or so chevre mixture inside each tomato, allowing some to protrude out of the top.  Alternatively, place chevre mixture in a pastry piping bag fitted with a medium tip and pip into tomatoes.
