A hint of green onion adds a fresh kick, while a sprinkle of salt and black pepper rounds out the savory filling. Perfect for parties, picnics, or as a quick snack, this no-fuss recipe takes just 20 minutes to prepare and can be made ahead for convenience.

Slice the tops off the cherry tomatoes and carefully scoop out the seeds and pulp using a small spoon or a melon baller. Place the hollowed-out tomatoes upside down on a paper towel to allow excess moisture to drain while you prepare the filling.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, crumbled bacon, chopped romaine lettuce, green onions, salt, and black pepper. Stir well until the ingredients are evenly mixed.
Using a small spoon or piping bag, fill each hollowed cherry tomato with the bacon-lettuce mixture. Be sure to pack the filling gently but fully into each tomato.
Once all the tomatoes are filled, place them on a serving platter. Optionally, garnish with additional chopped green onion or a sprinkle of crumbled bacon for extra flair.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving. Enjoy your delicious bite-sized BLT Cherry Tomatoes!
