2. Cooking Directions

  1. Combine shrimp, celery, basil, olives, shallot, mayonnaise, vinegar and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir to combine.
  2. Carefully hollow out the inside of each tomato using a melon baller or small spoon; reserve the scooped tomato for another use (see Tip). To serve, fill each tomato with a generous 1/2 cup of the shrimp salad.

Yield: 4 servings

3. Still Hungry?

Hollowed-out tomatoes were the secret to elegant lunches in the '50s--and they deserve a comeback today. Look for bright red, aromatic tomatoes without any mushy spots or discolorations. You can also stuff these tomatoes with Bacony Barley Salad with Marinated Shrimp or Curried Tofu Salad.

Notes:

Tip

Save the scooped-out tomato insides to use in fresh tomato soup or pasta sauce. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

To Make Ahead

Prepare the salad (Step 1). Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.

  • Not so much our thing

    Made this yesterday. I\\\'m not a big mayo fan, but I\\\'ll use it for guacomole and tuna salad. This recipe was just ok. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a no fat sour cream or yogurt. It was kind of bland, so I even tried adding a bit of chili pepper for a kick. It didn\\\'t help, well, maybe a little. I wouldn\\\'t use 2 tablespoons of mayo,it doesn\\\'t need that much.
