01
Step 1
Start by slicing off the top quarter of each cherry tomato. If they’re a little wobbly, trim a tiny bit off the bottom so they can stand up straight. Use a small spoon—like a baby spoon or grapefruit spoon—to gently scoop out the seeds and pulp. Then, place the tomatoes upside down on some paper towels to let them drain.

Step 2
In a bowl, mix together the salad dressing, bacon bits, chopped green onions, Parmesan cheese, and parsley. Once everything is combined, spoon the mixture into each tomato. Cover them and pop them in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.
