These tomato bites were delicious, but they were a bit too time-consuming to make. I think I'll look for a simpler recipe next time.

These caprese tomato bites were a little bland. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These tomato bites were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.
