BLT Chicken Salad Stuffed Tomatoes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups chopped cooked chicken
  • 8 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped celery
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper divided
  • 2 1-pound containers small Campari tomatoes (about 30 tomatoes)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Garnish: finely shredded green leaf lettuce cooked crumbled bacon

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, combine chicken, bacon, mayonnaise, celery, green onion, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; cover and chill.
  2. Using a serrated knife, cut a thin slice off bottom of tomatoes to create a level base. Cut tops from tomatoes. Using a melon baller, remove pulp, leaving shells intact. Turn tomatoes upside down on paper towels to drain for 10 minutes. Season inside of tomato shells with salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  3. Spoon chicken salad into each tomato shell. Garnish with lettuce and bacon, if desired.
