The fat content of cottage cheese varies widely. Creamed cottage cheese can have as much as 4% fat, low-fat cottage cheese ranges from 1% to 2% fat and dry curd cottage cheese, made without added cream, has less than 1/2% fat. In this recipe, the 1% cottage cheese adds a little richness to the filling without adding a lot of fat.
INGREDIENTS
| 15 | cherry tomatoes |
| 1/2 | cup low-fat (1%) cottage cheese |
| 1 | tablespoon thinly sliced green onion |
| 1 | teaspoon chopped fresh chervil or 1/4 teaspoon dried chervil leaves |
| 1/2 | teaspoon snipped fresh dill or 1/8 teaspoon dried dill weed |
| 1/8 | teaspoon lemon pepper |
PREPARATION:
- Cut thin slice off bottom of each tomato. Scoop out pulp with small spoon; discard pulp. Invert tomatoes onto paper towels to drain.
- Combine cottage cheese, green onion, chervil, dill and lemon pepper in small bowl. Spoon into tomatoes. Serve at once, or cover and refrigerate up to 8 hours.
