This is more of an idea than a recipe, but I couldn’t resist sharing it with you. With the approaching holidays, simple and delicious appetizers and side dishes are always a good addition. This is one of my favorites. It takes a few minutes to assemble and is both light, refreshing and hearty – if that’s even possible:).
Slice the tomatoes horizontally into 1/4 – 1/2 inch thick slices. It’s totally up to you how thick you make the tomatoes.
Place the mayonnaise and a minced garlic clove in a ziptop bag.
Mash it up in your hands to distribute the garlic in the mayo.
Cut a small hole in one of the corners of the bag and drizzle mayo over the top of each tomato slice.
Sprinkle a mixture of the Mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the mayo.

it’s his favorite…
Olga, sometimes I wonder how a lot of your recepies are very very similar as to what we do at home
my favorite thing to do when its the tomato season…love to use mayo and cheese on the fresh farm grown tomatoes…:)
Fresh garden tomatoes can’t be beat. They are my favorite vegetable for sure. I guess, technically, they are considered fruit, but whatever the case may be, they are DELICIOUS!!
Olga, thank you for reminding me about this recipe. I haven’t made these yummies for a long time!
I made these today and they turned out beautiful. I don’t eat cheese but I still wanted to make them for my family and everyone loved them. Thank you for this interesting recipe.
