Cooking Tips:
*If you can find one, they do sell small serrated
scoopers that are specifically designed for scooping out
pulp of cherry tomatoes. They are a little easier
to work with than a melon ball scooper. Check out
specialty food or kitchen shops for this cool tool |

****Restaurant
Quality!- would
make it again. "I have
made this version too and it was called BLT tomatoes but I wanted to
reduce the fat so I put lowfat plain yogurt in a cheesecloth and drain
for several hours then mix as usual (otherwise too runny) and you get a
great LOWFAT snack and no one knows its lowfat!"
