Moo's Avocado-Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes

This is a very simple recipe. Personally, I love the grape tomatoes for their sweetness, but you may prefer the cherry tomatoes. They are bigger and not quite as sweet. Which ever you choose, these are fun and pretty.

Wash a basket or two of cherry or grape tomatoes (depending on the size of your gathering). Slice off the tops and scoop out most of the seeds. Chill, as this makes them easier to work with. Now peel and pit a couple of nice ripe avocados. Add about 2 T lemon juice, 1 t. salt and a dash of cayenne pepper. Chill. When ready to assemble, fill a pastry bag with the avocado mixture and pipe into the tomatoes.
