This is a recipe a friend made up in an effort to make healthy foods.
Serves As many as you like
- 8 Small tomatoes off the vine
- 1 quart Labneh cheese or thick Greek yogurt
- 1 bunch Fresh basil leaves
- 2-3 pieces Garlic
- 1-2 pinch Salt
- 1 splash Extra virgin Olive Oil
-
Wash the tomatoes and basil thoroughly.
-
Slice the top off the tomatoes and carve out the inside as if you were to stuff them
-
To prepare the stuffing, I use labneh cheese, but if you cannot find that you can use Greek yogurt. If you use Greek yogurt you should add a pinch of salt and mix it then strain it overnight with a cheese cloth in the fridge so it becomes very thick. Chop the basil very finely and mix a handful of the chopped basil into the yogurt/ labneh then add 2-3 cloves of garlic minced, then add a pinch of salt. Mix together.
-
Using a spoon, spoon the mixture into each tomato.
-
Once all done place on your favorite serving dish and drizzle some olive oil in top and sprinckle some more chopped basil to garnish. Enjoy as a snack or as a party apatizer!
