Tomato Canapes

"This recipe is from Paula Dean's show. I usually make them when I am hosting dinner at home for a few friends. However they are extremely easy to make, so delicious and "healthy". I will be making them for a potluck next. Hope you enjoy! NOTE: definitely double the recipe, one batch feeds 4."

  1. These were so simple and easy, although I was out of phyllo pastry I made it homemade with recipe http://www.food.com/recipe/homemade-phyllo-pastry-71214. It all tasted so great and favorable. I am making this again tonight for romantic dinner with Hubby.. I urge anyone to do both recipes together... the ease of the canapes was incredible.. nearly said priceless.. lol well they are! Thanks for sharing Weiner's Mom!<br/><br/>Oh to lower the fat content, I did use fat free cheese and Mayo. In case someone wants the cheese without the fat... ty again for posting!
     
  2. Can't believe this one hasn't been rated before!! It doesn't get much easier and these look absolutely fabulous arranged on Grama's silver tray. (Tip: can be made healthier without the mayo or cheese. I just add more fresh basil) Thanks so much for this one!!

Busy life, but there is always time for leisure and good food! I am a animal and nature lover. I am a volunteer for FLDR (Florida Dachshund Rescue) and I also participate in another club called RFVC (Rare Fruit and Vegetable of Broward County). I should make more recipes with tropical fruits, eventually I will post them public. :) Other than that - I just love traveling and now my new addiciton is World of Warcraft. - go figure, I am almost 30 and now I like playing video games.
