Ingredients

• 12 large cherry tomatoes
• 2 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

Step 1

1 Cut top off each cherry tomato. With melon baller or measuring spoon, scoop out seeds from each tomato, leaving enough for a firm shell. If necessary, cut small slice from bottom so tomato stands upright. Place tomatoes on serving plate or tray.
