Stuffed BLT tomatoes
Ingredients
- 1 pound bacon
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 cup finely chopped lettuce
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 24 cherry tomatoes
- Shredded cheddar cheese to taste
- Croutons or breadcrumbs
Directions
- Fry the bacon until crisp. Let it cool, then crumble it.
- In a bowl, stir together the bacon, mayonnaise, cream cheese, green onions, lettuce, and parsley until well blended.
- Slice a thin piece off the top of each tomato. Scoop out the insides with a melon baller or small measuring spoon. Turn the tomatoes upside down on paper towels to drain for a few minutes, so the filling doesn't get watery.
- Fill each tomato with the bacon mixture and sprinkle with cheese.
- Refrigerate until serving time.
- Just before serving, top with croutons or breadcrumbs so they stay crunchy.
