How to make a snack with tomatoes and cheese? We will make the first version of the snack on tomatoes with dill and spring onions. To do this, prepare the necessary ingredients.

Wash the tomatoes, dry and cut into circles. Choose tomatoes that are juicy but dense. Soft fruits do not hold their shape well, in the process of cutting and cooking they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.

Cut the bell peppers into very small cubes.

Peel and run the garlic through the press or grate finely.

Wash dill and spring onion feathers, dry and chop finely. Leave some dill to decorate.

Place the curd cheese in a bowl and mash with a fork. If your cheese is very dense and you want to make it drier, add 1-2 tbsp. l of fatty sour cream and mix.

Add the greens, garlic, suneli hops and a mixture of ground peppers to the curd cheese.

Mix everything thoroughly with a fork until smooth.

Transfer the resulting curd filling to a pastry bag with an asterisk attachment. Squeeze the curd filling into each tomato ring using a pastry bag.

To make the snack look beautiful, lay the tomatoes on the lettuce leaves. Top with the chopped bell pepper and the remaining dill.

Now let's move on to the second version of this snack. Basil can be used with large leaves or in the form of small branched bushes with small leaves. I have one kind of basil used for filling and another for decorating.

Wash the tomatoes as well, dry and cut into circles.

Wash the basil, dry. Pull the leaves off the twigs.

Peel and cut the garlic clove into a few pieces.

Put the prepared basil leaves, garlic and sea salt in the blender bowl.

Whisk everything to the right consistency. I did not beat for long so that the leaves would not be crushed into a uniform mash.

Place the curd cheese in a bowl and mash with a fork. If desired, also dilute with sour cream.

In a bowl, combine the curd cheese and basil mass.

Mix everything thoroughly. Unlike the first option, curd cheese will turn pale green from the released juice when grinding greens in a blender.

Similarly, transfer the curd filling to a pastry bag with an asterisk attachment. If desired, you can use a regular teaspoon to apply the filling to tomatoes in both cases.

Lay circles of tomatoes on the dish. Spread the curd filling with basil from the pastry bag on top.

Top the snack with sprigs of basil. You can serve both snacks separately or combine on the same dish. Enjoy your meal!
