STUFFED CHERRY TOMATOES
I adapted this tomato appetizer from a stuffed mushroom recipe that I've used for years. The tasty little treats always win compliments-they're perfect at parties or for potlucks and salad luncheons. Best of all, although it looks as if you slaved over them for hours, they are really very easy to prepare! -Donna Smith, Grey Cliff, Montana

BACON AND LETTUCE STUFFED CHERRY TOMATOES
This is an easy, simple recipe that goes over well. You can make the filling ahead and scoop out the tomatoes well ahead of time but do not fill the tomatoes until just before serving. I like to add the lettuce to the filling just before filling the tomato however the original recipe said you can mix it in when you combine all the stuffing ingredients. Looks great on a buffet table
