Ingredients:

  • 24 cherry tomatoes
  • 24 teeny pieces of lettuce or arugula (i used baby spinach leaves)
  • 3 slices cooked bacon , torn into small shards
  • 1/2 cup flavoured mayonnaise (not miracle whip) - i mixed about a tsp. of sriracha into my mayo but the original recipe gives directions to make your own homemade aioli flavoured with chipolte. i also think a caesar flavoured dressing would be fun inside and you could call them mini caesar cups and maybe add a little crouton

Directions:

  1. Cut the bottoms off the cherry tomatoes. They will stand on their tops.
  2. Gently squeeze the pulp from the inside of the tomatoes with your fingers and turn upside down on a piece of paper towel to drain.
  3. Spoon a tiny amount of the flavoured mayo into each little tomato cup to fill, making sure not to overfill. The recipe's author also suggested using a pastry bag fitted with a small tip to pipe the mayo into the tomato and I think that's a great idea.
  4. Stuff one piece of lettuce into each tomato cup. I used a small paring knife to help get it to the bottom. And then add a shard of the cooked bacon as a garnish in the mayo beside the leaf of lettuce.
  5. Voila. Now pop one in your mouth! YUM!
