My four-year-old daughter loves tomatoes. With my help, she can make this simple recipe. She even gathers basil from the garden and tears it into small pieces.
by Elizabeth Savoie Dronet
Ingredients
1 pkg cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup whipped cream cheese
fresh basil, chopped or torn
salt and pepper to taste
Method
Slice the top off of each tomato and gently scoop out some of the seeds. Turn upside down on a paper towel to drain for a few minutes.
Mix cream cheese with basil, salt, and pepper. Fill tomatoes with cheese mixture and place the lids back on top. They will not close completely.
*Thinly sliced chives or green onions may be substituted for basil.
