Tomatoes with Processed Cheese and Garlic
Description
You can make such a colorful dish in literally 10 minutes, but remember that the filling needs to absorb the garlic aroma for at least 30 minutes so the appetizer becomes juicy and piquant. If you like, you can prepare the filling ahead of time and stuff the peeled vegetables with it just before serving.

Step 3
Remove the foil from the processed cheese bars. If you prefer, you can buy processed cheese in a large tub instead. Grate the cheese bars on a coarse grater into a deep bowl. Peel the garlic cloves and rinse them under water. Press them into the bowl with the processed cheese. Season with salt and add mayonnaise of any fat content. If possible, use garlic mayonnaise and you won't need to add fresh garlic. Gently mix the filling in the bowl.
