Cherry Tomatoes in Herb Marinade

"Sounds like a lot of trouble peeling cherry tomatoes but it's worth the effort to create these wonderful appetizers. At the picnic, you can eat them with picks directly from the serving container!"

  1. Very good tomato salad. I used fresh herbs (lots) and garlic and reduced the salt and oil (to 2 tablespoons). Thoroughly enjoyed!
     
  2. Outstanding tomato appetizer! Your method of peeling the tomatoes worked perfectly and was really easy, and peeling them allowed them to really soak up all that lovely herb marinade. We enjoyed the 'pop' of tomato juice that you get when you bite into these. This recipe is a keeper - thanks for sharing it!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes: ? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again. ? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time. ? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK ? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all ? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
