I enjoyed these tomato cups. I bought the mozarella already cut into small chuncks which made the time go faster. I really enjoyed these!

Instead of using the Italian dressing I used Balsamic vinegar. It tastes much better and reminds me of the appetizers my Italian friends always made back in Naples.
