AVOCADO-STUFFED TOMATOES

Steps:

• 1. Cut a thin slice from the top of each tomato so you can scoop out the seeds. (I also cut a very thin slice from the bottom of each tomato so they stand upright.)
• 2. Using a small melon baller, carefully scoop out the inside of the tomatoes. Turn them upside down on a paper towel lined cookie sheet and let them stand for about 30 minutes to drain. You can either add the pulp into the filling mixture, or, if there are too many seeds, just discard the pulp.
• 3. Meanwhile prepare the filling...put avocado, cream cheese, garlic salt, pepper and lemon juice in a food processor. Cover and pulse until smooth.
• 4. Add the grated onion to the mixture and stir to blend. Spoon mixture into a piping bag with a round tip or a ziptop plastic bag (cut a small tip off of the plastic bag AFTER you spoon the mixture into it).
• 5. Place the tomatoes, open sides up, on your favorite serving platter. Pipe the filling into the tomato 'cups'.
• 6. Serve immediately or cover loosly and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.

Steps:

• Cut thin slices from the tops of the cherry tomatoes. With a small melon ball cutter, scoop out and discard the seeds and pulp. Sprinkle the insides of the shells lightly with sugar and salt and invert the shells on paper towels to drain for at least 30 minutes.
• In a bowl, mash avocados with sour cream, parsley, lime juice, lemon juice, chives, 1/4 tsp. salt, hot pepper sauce, and 1/4 tsp sugar.
• Using a small knife, fill the tomato shells with avocado mixture. Arrange the tomatoes on a serving dish and serve them chilled.
