Welcome to Chris Cook for YouTube, today we're making stuffed cherry tomatoes and stuffed celery.

Take half of the pimento cheese spread and mix it with half of the 4 oz cream cheese in a bowl.

Add a tiny bit of salt to the mixture and blend well until smooth.

Trim the ends of the celery pieces to make them even and cut them into equal parts.

Use a potato peeler to remove the strings from the celery to make it easier to chew.

Set the prepared celery aside for stuffing later.

For the cherry tomatoes, cut off the tops and use a knife to carefully remove the seeds from inside.

Turn the cherry tomatoes upside down to drain out any excess juices after cleaning them out.

Prepare the stuffing for the cherry tomatoes by mixing 2 oz of softened cream cheese with 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise in a bowl.

Add 1/4 teaspoon of dill to the cream cheese mixture and blend well.

Chop 1/4 of a cucumber and 1 stock of green onion finely, then mix them into the cream cheese mixture.

Ensure the cucumber is deseeded to prevent excess water in the filling.

Once everything is well mixed, use a small spoon or fork to stuff the cherry tomatoes with the filling.
