Now, this is interesting…a sort of frozen pimento cheese stuffed into a cold tomato.

    I don’t like the idea of the freezing cream and actually I don’t like the idea of cream much at all either.

    Can’t we just hollow out a tomato, shove some cream cheese (or cheddar cheese) and pimento and olives into it and call it done?
