Pesto Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes

These are a great easy appetizer to make and travel well to potlucks!

1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup fresh parsley
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp salt
a few dashes of pepper
2 Tbs olive oil
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
20 cherry tomatoes

Use a food processor to blend together the basil, parsley, Parmesan, salt, pepper, olive oil and garlic.

Mix the pesto with the ricotta.

Make an X in the bottom of each tomato cherry almost to the top. Gently spread it open and scoop out the seeds and pulp. Spoon the pesto-ricotta mix into each tomato.
