Tomato Canapes image

This recipe is from Paula Dean's show. I usually make them when I am hosting dinner at home for a few friends. However they are extremely easy to make, so delicious and "healthy". I will be making them for a potluck next. Hope you enjoy! NOTE: definitely double the recipe, one batch feeds 4.
