BACON AND LETTUCE STUFFED CHERRY TOMATOES



Bacon and Lettuce Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes image

This is an easy, simple recipe that goes over well. You can make the filling ahead and scoop out the tomatoes well ahead of time but do not fill the tomatoes until just before serving. I like to add the lettuce to the filling just before filling the tomato however the original recipe said you can mix it in when you combine all the stuffing ingredients. Looks great on a buffet table
