This appetizer is smooth, yet tangy, and absolutely fully of flavor. Good for any occasion and great because it's only 3 carbs per serving!

8 oz. goat cheese, softened
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp fresh basil, finely chopped
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 pints large cherry tomatoes (about 1-inch in diameter)
Directions
In medium bowl, combine the goat cheese, garlic, basil, salt and pepper and set it aside.
Using a sharp knife, cut the very tops off of the cherry tomatoes. Carefully cut around the ribs inside to loosen and scoop out seeds and interior membranes. I found it best to use a very small spoon to scoop.
Using another small spoon, place 1 tsp or so chevre mixture inside each tomato, allowing some to protrude out of the top. Alternatively, place chevre mixture in a pastry piping bag fitted with a medium tip and pip into tomatoes.
