Stuffed Tomatoes & Cucumber Wraps

Ingredients 

Stuffed Tomatoes

  • 24 baby heirloom tomatoes
  • 1 cup blue cheese
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 mini cucumber minced
  • pepper
  • 1 bunch chives chopped

Cucumber Wraps

  • 3 mini cucumbers sliced very thin lengthwise
  • 1 cup risotto cooked and cooled
  • 1 medium red onion minced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 baby heirloom tomatoes seeded and minced
  • 1/4 cup chipotle chili in adobo sauce pureed
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 bunch chives chopped

Instructions 

For the tomatoes

  • Using a sharp knife, slice the top off the tomatoes. Trim the bottom so they sit upright. Gently scoop out the seeds with a melon baller. Set aside.
  • In a bowl, combine the bleu cheese, mayonnaise, garlic, cucumber and pepper. Mix well. With a small spoon or a piping bag, fill each tomato and garnish with the chives.

For the cucumbers

  • Lay 1 cucumber slice flat. Add a layer of risotto, pressing slightly as you layer it. Next add the red onion, garlic and the tomatoes. Gently roll the cucumbers and hold them with a toothpick.
  • In a bowl, combine the chipotle puree and the mayonnaise. Mix well and place in a squirt bottle. Squeeze a small amount in the center of the filling of the cucumbers and garnish with the chives.
  • You can adjust the heat of the chipotle mix by adding or using less of the chipotle puree.

Notes

Use some of the chipotle/mayo mixtures to garnish the platter.
