Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Cherry tomatoes
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Wash the cherry tomatoes thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Using a sharp paring knife, carefully slice off the top of each cherry tomato. Gently scoop out the seeds and pulp with a small spoon or the tip of the knife to create a hollow cavity. Set the tomatoes aside upright on a tray.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, finely chopped chives, chopped parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated and the cream cheese is smooth.
Transfer the cream cheese mixture into a piping bag fitted with a small round tip, or use a resealable plastic bag with one corner snipped off.
Pipe the cream cheese mixture into the hollowed-out cherry tomatoes, filling them generously.
Once all the tomatoes are stuffed, arrange them on a serving platter and garnish with extra chopped chives or parsley (optional).
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to keep them fresh.
