Spicy Tequila-Spiked Cherry Tomatoes

Preparation Cut off 1/4 inch from blossom end (opposite stem end) of each tomato and with a 1/4-teaspoon measure carefully scoop out seeds. Wearing rubber gloves, seed and mince jalapeño.

Chill tomatoes, covered, 4 hours, or until filling is set, and up to 1 day. Garnish each tomato with a coriander leaf. Each hors d'oeuvre about 7 calories and 0 grams fat.
