Love is in the air and Cupid’s arrow is headed your way! These bite-sized gems are too perfect for Valentine’s Day, but they’re also fun any other day of the year. I mean sweet, juicy cherry tomatoes paired with salty, savory cheese is always a sure thing in my book. And while cutting the small bow-and-arrow shapes will take a few extra minutes, it’s worth the effort (“honey, these are sooo cool!”). Make ‘em for all your sweeties and spread the power of love. ❤ 

Cheese + tomato = couple goals

  • Prep time
  • Total Time
This recipe makes 10 arrows
Ingredients:
  • • 10 cherry tomatoes (oblong) 
  • • ½ block cheddar cheese
  • • 10 toothpicks
Preparation:

Cut a cherry tomato on the diagonal, and connect the flat (cut) edges to form a heart. Cut the rest of the tomatoes in a similar fashion.

Slice the block of cheese in half (length-wise) creating two 1-inch thick chunks. Using the pictures above as your reference, cut ten pieces in the shape of a chevron arrow (back of arrow) and ten pieces in the shape of the front tip (small triangles).

To assemble kebabs, slide the back-of-arrow cheese pieces to the bottom of each toothpick, followed by your sliced cherry tomato heart, and triangular cheese arrowhead.
