Stuffed Tomatoes

roughly 1.5 Pts Plus per tomato

Stuffed tomatoes.  I just made these beauties.  They are delicious if I have to say so myself!  They'd make a great, not-to-terrible high point appetizer for the holidays.  Make them at least 2 hours ahead.  Just scoop, stuff, and refrigerate.  No oven needed.  For stuffing, I mixed 3 tbsp Real Bacon Uncured Bits (could use 2), 1 tbsp. mayo, 2 tbsps. low-fat Ital. dressing, Italian seasoning to taste, 1/2 tbsp. chopped garlic, 1/2 cup shredded parm, and salt and pepper to taste.  I came out to 1.7 pts plus per tomato.
