Merry Tomatoes

[Guest guest]

This is a great Xmas hors d'oeuvres. People will crowd around saying how " cute "

it is. It really tastes like a Bloody on a toothpick. <g>

Merry Tomatoes

Ingredients

30 to 40 Cherry Tomatoes -- Stems removed

1 cup Vodka

1 Teaspoon Celery Salt

1/4 teaspoons lemon-pepper

Instructions

Place the tomatoes in a glass bowl ( like a small triffle bowl , I use a wine

glass rinser because I collect them they resemble small triffle bowls ) pour

vodka

over them ( you made need more than one cup of vodka because you want the

tomatoes to be covered) in a seprate bowl place celery salt and lemon pepper

you have combined I like a wide mouthed shallow bowl for this next to if place

a container full of tooth picks ( i use a silver egg cup ) .. guest stab a

tomato and dip in the salt/pepper combination .. tastes just like a bloody mary

.....

Notes : I double the salt and Pepper mixture so that guests don't have to dip

all the way into a bowl to get the mixture thats why something more the shap of

ash tray works ...

Recipe Notes

Duncan says she peels the little grape tomatoes so they will absorb more

of the vodka. What a great idea. She also says she uses pepper and lemon zest

instead of a lemon pepper mixture, then

you get a burst of really fresh lemon flavour from the zest. Thanks to .
