Tempting Tomato Cups

By: Carla Browning

"'For as long as I can remember, I've eaten this pretty salad in the summer when fresh tomatoes are so good,' recalls Carla Browning of Fort Walton Beach, Florida. 'Brimming with a crunchy filling, it makes a wonderful light lunch or can replace a green salad at dinner.'"
