Garden-fresh zucchini and cherry tomatoes are tastefully combined in these colorful appetizers. Writes Amy Frombach of Bradford, Pennsylvania, Folks tend to hang around the appetizer tray whenever I serve these pretty party bites. Ingredients:
5 medium zucchini (about 6 inches long) |
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled |
3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese |
1 teaspoon dried basil |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1 pint cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced |
Directions:
1. Cut zucchini into 3/4-in. slices. Using a melon baller or small spoon, scoop out the insides and discard, leaving the bottom intact. Place zucchini on an ungreased baking sheet; spoon 1/2 teaspoon crumbled blue cheese into each. 2. Combine Parmesan cheese, basil and pepper; sprinkle half over blue cheese. Top each with a tomato slice; sprinkle with remaining Parmesan mixture. 3. Bake at 400° for 5-7 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve warm. Yield: 35 appetizers. |
