TOMATO-BASIL BITES
this dish consists of three of my favorite things....tomatoes...cheese...and basil. it can do no wrong. it takes a little bit of prep work but it's worth it!
1 pkg cherry tomatoes
fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into small cubes
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp. kosher salt
6-8 basil leaves, julienned
cut a bit off of the top of each tomato and squeeze out the seeds and juice (i save this all in a separate bowl and use it later mixed in with pasta sauce). as well as taking the top off of each tomato, cut a little sliver off the bottom as well so each tomato will sit upright on a plate. Once each tomato is hollowed out, fill with a small cube of cheese.
Drizzle oil over the tomatoes. Sprinkle with salt and top with basil.
the end :)
