About


These little critters are so flavorful and tantalizing you won’t eat just one.  They can be served as appetizers, a side dish or as a nice snack since they are so easy to make.

While you prepare the stuffing just place them into the refrigerator to get them cold again.  My teenage daughter who is not a huge tomato fan loves these and can eat many of them because they are filled with her most favorite food in the world, avocados.
