Cherry Tomato Surprise image

The surprise is the shrimp and cream cheese filling! This is a delicious appetizer! My own little creation ;)

Categories     Vegetable Appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 6

75 medium size cherry tomatoes
THE FILLING
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 c mayonnaise
1 bunch green onions, cut up to green, and cut very fine
2 can(s) shrimp

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare the cherry tomatoes. Wash well and dry. Make a straight cut to remove the stem end of the tomato. Then scoop out the seeds and pulp with the smallest spoon available. (I used a 1/8 tsp.)
  • 2. Turn all the tomatoes upside down, to let the juices drain. While the tomatoes are draining, prepare the filling.
  • 3. Mix cream cheese and mayonnaise together, until smooth. Add the green onions, mix well. Set aside.
  • 4. Drain the packing juice from the canned shrimp. Then soak the shrimp in ice water for 10 minutes. Pour off the water, and squeeze excess water from shrimp gently, and shred by hand.
  • 5. Add the shredded shrimp to the cream cheese mixture. Mix well.
  • 6. Generously fill each cherry tomato with the shrimp filling. Chill and serve! Enjoy!

This recipe was a disappointment. The tomatoes were bland and the goat cheese was too overpowering.

I've never made anything like this before, but it turned out great! I'm definitely going to make it again.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The tomatoes were too sour and the goat cheese was too strong.

This recipe is a lifesaver! I always have cherry tomatoes on hand and now I know what to do with them.

I'm not a big fan of goat cheese, but this dish was still really good.

This was a great recipe to use up my cherry tomatoes. I added some fresh basil and it was perfect.

A bit too sweet for my taste, but still a solid recipe.

This was a delightful dish! The cherry tomatoes were bursting with flavor and the goat cheese added a tangy creaminess. I will definitely be making this again.
