Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes
Two 1-pint baskets cherry tomatoes
3/4 C. crumbled blue cheese
3 ounces nonfat cream cheese
2 tsp. minced fresh thyme, or 1 tsp. dried
Fresh thyme sprigs (optional)
Slice 1/4″ off the bottom of each tomato, reserving the bottoms. In a small bowl, combine the cheeses and thyme. Dab about 1/2 tsp. of the mixture on the cut edge of each tomato. Cover each with a tomato bottom. Arrange the tomatoes upside-down (the “dimples” on the stem end will keep them upright) on a large serving tray and garnish with the thyme sprigs (if using). Serve at once, or refrigerate, covered, up to 2 hours (let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before serving).
