Cream Cheese Appetizers with Tomato & spring onion

These cream cheese appetizers with Tomato and spring onion were another big hit at my Christmas party this year. What I liked best easy appetizers like these, is that the mixture kept its consistency well and did not make the crackers soggy, so they could be made a little ahead of time.  The taste is delicious.

Easy party appetizers make entertaining an easy thing rather than a stressful task. Be sure to also check out my phyllo cup appetizers for more quick to prepare ideas.

Making the Cream Cheese Appetizers with Tomato & spring onion

If you are looking for 30 minute meals or appetizers, this one is always a hit at my parties.

The recipes  is very easy. You will need the following ingredients:

• 1 box of cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
• 1 bunch of spring onions. (I still have some in my garden and they were full of flavor
• 1 – 8 oz block of cream cheese, at room temperature
• Fresh herbs.  I used cilantro, and  basil
• 5 slices of cooked and crumbled bacon
• 1/4 cup of chopped pecans
• Triscuit crackers to serve

Cook your bacon first and then place it on paper towels.  When cooled, crumble it and set it aside.  (I bake my bacon to get rid of most of the fat. See how to do it in this article.)

Combine the cream cheese with the basil, cilantro, chopped pecans and crumbled bacon.

Spread about a tablespoon of the cream cheese mix on each Trisket cracker.  Top with one half grape tomato and sprinkle with spring onions and serve.  They are delicious, easy to make and very popular.
