Bacon Tomato Appetizers

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Appetizers Garden

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 quarts cherry tomatoes
1 pound bacon
1/2 cup mayonnaise -- (Not salad dressing)

DIRECTIONS:

With a knife cut off a thin top of each tomato (stem part) and discard. Scoop out inside from tomato (a half teaspoon works really well)and set tomato aside. Fry bacon until brown. Cook and crumble. Add mayonnaise. Put bacon filling into each tomato.
Tastes like a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich. Can be made ahead and chilled.
My note: I've stuffed them with cream cheese and bacon. Also, with cream cheese mixed with the dry hidden Valley Ranch. I also find cutting the other end off easier as they sit up better.
