Cook the bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain on paper towels and crumble into small pieces once cooled.
Wash and dry the cherry tomatoes. Using a small sharp knife, slice off the tops of the tomatoes and scoop out the seeds with a small spoon or the tip of the knife to create small hollow shells. Set aside.
Finely chop the romaine lettuce and green onion.
In a small bowl, mix the crumbled bacon, chopped lettuce, green onion, mayonnaise, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Using a small spoon or piping bag, carefully fill each hollowed tomato with the bacon mixture.
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
