Walnut Stuffed Cherry Tomato Halves Recipes

STUFFED CHERRY TOMATOES

Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes image

I adapted this tomato appetizer from a stuffed mushroom recipe that I've used for years. The tasty little treats always win compliments-they're perfect at parties or for potlucks and salad luncheons. Best of all, although it looks as if you slaved over them for hours, they are really very easy to prepare! -Donna Smith, Grey Cliff, Montana

WALNUT STUFFED CHERRY TOMATO HALVES

Walnut Stuffed Cherry Tomato Halves image

Who doesn't love a stuffed cherry tomato? This one is a tasty combination of flavors and textures that make it an exciting hors d'oeuvre to eat. It can be so refreshing to have a pre-meal bite that is made without bread! The great richness of the nuts is brought to life by the cheese, the peppery arugula and the juicy tomatoes. They can be assembled and refrigerated until just before serving. I love these before a big holiday meal or when having people over for some casual snacks. They are easy and fun to make and your friends and family will think you are a rock star! Just mix arugula, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, lemon and ground and lightly chopped walnuts and stuff them inside cherry tomato halves. Perfect before a big meal, they're tasty without being filling.

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

3/4 cup fresh arugula leaf, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup coarsely chopped Fisher® Chef's Naturals Walnut Halves and Pieces, toasted
1/2 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/8 teaspoon salt
36 cherry tomatoes

Steps:

1. Combine arugula with the walnuts, cheese, olive oil, vinegar and lemon zest; set aside.
Cut the tops off the tomatoes. With a small spoon (espresso spoon), the handle of a teaspoon or melon baller, gently remove the majority of the seeds and pulp, taking care not to pierce the skin. Season the insides lightly with salt. Fill the tomatoes with the walnut and arugula mixture. Serve at room temperature.
Note: To toast walnuts, place them in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently until golden, 3 to 5 minutes.
For a more Italian experience, use authentic Reggiano Parmigiano cheese in this recipe. It's more expensive than domestic Parmesan but it has a wonderfully rich and nutty flavor.

LEMON-WALNUT PESTO STUFFED CHERRY TOMATOES

Lemon-Walnut Pesto Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes image

This is from the "Vegetarian Appetizers" cookbook. The picture looked so fabulous that I just had to try it. DH and the other guests just gobbled these up. The pesto is pretty tasty! You will have to guage the olive oil based upon how you like your pesto. The yield on this is dependent upon the size of the tomatoes used and how you cut them. This yield assumes the tomato only has the top cut off, not in half.

Rinse cherry tomatoes under running water and pat them dry. Cut off the top where the stem was. With a sharp-point knife, cut around the center of the tomato (This will make it easier to scoop the middle part out). With a small spoon or a measuring spoon – ¼ teaspoon works great, remove all the seeds.
When done, level off the tomato by cutting a very small piece off of the bottom. Place it onto a paper kitchen towel the open side down to get rid of any excess juices.
For the filling: In a bowl, mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Taste and adjust to your liking, if needed.
Transfer the filling into one of the corners of a Ziploc bag. With scissors, cut a small hole and fill each cherry tomato up to the top and a little bit over. Sprinkle with paprika.
