These Tuna Mozzarella Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes are a fantastic summer appetizer. They look really impressive, and they taste absolutely delicious too! You will need 16 toothpicks to assemble these little canapes.
To make these stuffed tomatoes, start by combining parsley, oil, drained tuna, fresh mozzarella and mayo and blend until the mixture is nice and creamy. Set aside. Prepare the tomatoes by cutting off the top of the tomato and removing the pulp and seeds. Turn the tomatoes upside down on a rack to drain. Turn to an upright position and sprinkle with a little salt. Pierce a basil leaf with each toothpick. Then poke the toothpick through the middle of the tomato top.
Divide the mixture between each cherry tomato and replace with the top of the basil/tomato. Serve immediately or cover with plastic and refrigerate until serving.
To make my Tuna Mozzarella Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes, you will need the following ingredients:
Place 2-3 tablespoons of freshly chopped Italian parsley in a blender with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, 2 small cans of drained tuna in water, ½ small fresh mozzarella ball and 4 teaspoons of mayonnaise. Blend for about 7 - 8 seconds, until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Use a sharp knife to slice the top off the tomato. Remove the pulp and seeds from inside the tomatoes. Turn each one upside down on a rack to drain for about 10 minutes. Once drained, turn to an upright position and sprinkle with a little salt.
Place a basil leaf onto every toothpick. Poke the toothpick through the middle of each tomato top and repeat with every toothpick.
Divide the creamy tuna mixture between every cherry tomato. Place the tomato and basil toothpick on top of each stuffed tomato.
Serve immediately or cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
