CHERRY TOMATOES STUFFED WITH PESTO
When I lived in Provence, I followed the local custom of setting a couple of pots of basil by my kitchen door to keep the flies away. I'm not sure why it works, but the essential oils in basil - which make this herb so heavenly, although apparently not to flies - have been shown to have anti-bacterial properties. A few studies have shown that the oils can inhibit some pathogenic bacteria that have become resistant to antibiotics. Basil also contains flavonoids that are believed to have some antioxidant properties; it's an excellent source of vitamin K, and a very good source of iron, calcium and vitamin A. I've been serving these appetizers for decades. You can also make a warm side dish with medium-size tomatoes (see variation below).

Steps:
- To make the pesto, turn on a food processor fitted with the steel blade, and drop in the garlic. When it is chopped and adhering to the sides of the bowl, stop the machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Add the basil, pumpkin seeds or pine nuts, salt, pepper and olive oil to the food processor, and process until smooth and creamy. Add the Parmesan, and pulse until well combined. You can also use a mortar and pestle. Add the basil leaves gradually, and mash with the pestle. Add the pumpkin seeds or pine nuts, garlic, salt and pepper. Mash to a paste with the basil. Work in the olive oil and the Parmesan.
- Using a paring knife, cut thin slices from the tops of the cherry tomatoes. Use a grapefruit spoon or small spoon to scoop the seeds and flesh from the center of each tomato. Lightly salt the hollowed out tomatoes if desired, and place them, cut side down, on a rack to drain for 15 minutes. Fill with the pesto, arrange on a platter and serve. Refrigerate or freeze any excess pesto.

PESTO CHICKEN STUFFED CHERRY TOMATOES
I found different variations of stuffed tomatoes. I was looking for one that didn't have mayo in it since I wanted to take them for a potluck. The amount of olives, celery, olive oil, green olive juice and cheese depends on your taste. Enjoy.

Steps:
- Wash and core tomato. I got a tomatoes corer from Bed, Bath and Beyond for $4. Once they are cored place them upside down on a paper towel to get rid of the extra water.
- In bowl mix chicken, celery and green olives (cheese if you want it). Mix in pesto a bit at a time, taste it once you have mixed in a couple tablespoons. Pesto can overpower the taste if you aren't careful. You may need more or less.
- If you need a bit more moisture and don't want to use more Pesto add a bit of olive oil.
- Pepper to taste. If it needs a more salty taste use either some of the green olive juice or salt (coarse salt is better).
- Use either a small spoon or a Ziploc bag that the tip was cut from and fill the tomatoes.
- If you want to get all pretty and fancy you can top it w/cheese or a green olive slice or basil leaf. You can also top w/Mozzarella Cheese and put under the broiler until cheese is melted.

LEMON-WALNUT PESTO STUFFED CHERRY TOMATOES
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.
