stuffed cherry tomatoes
My granddaughter loves these. The red cherry tomatoes are good, but the little yellow tomatoes are fantastic. Much better than the red ones.

We love Caprese salad in the summertime, and this stuffed cherry tomato recipe is a great twist on that. Cherry tomatoes are stuffed with a super creamy filling made with mozzarella cheese, basil, and a few other ingredients. Then it's stuffed into the tomato and drizzled with a touch of balsamic vinegar. Sweet, salty, and savory, these cherry tomatoes are bursting with flavor. A rich, but light, appetizer for summer.
