Ingredients

24 buttery round crackers

4 ounces cream cheese, softened

2 medium ripe tomatoes, sliced into thin rounds

Directions

1. Wash and dry the tomatoes well, then slice them into thin rounds. If the slices seem very juicy, lightly pat them with a paper towel so the crackers stay crisp.

2. Spread or dollop a small amount of softened cream cheese onto each cracker.

4. Arrange on a plate and serve right away for the best texture.
