Have a plethora of those cherry/grape tomatoes?

As the gardens are just spitting their fruits out right now, some of you have a ton of those little cherry tomatoes...perfect for salads, pastas, Bruschetta, etc.  It sometimes can be a pain to slice each one of those suckers as they roll all over your board or counters.

Here's a quick tip:  Go to that cluttered Tupperware cabinet,/drawer.  Find those pesky little Egg Drop Soup lids...or maybe you have them from that Brunswick Stew fundraiser last fall.  Find two.

Place one down on your board and place your little tomatoes on the lid.  Make sure the lip of the lid is positioned so it will hold them in place...like a little border.

Place the second lid right on top of the tomatoes.  Lid-tomato-lid sandwich, if you will.  Get a knife.  People, use a serrated knife here.  You don't want to have a blood/tomato fiasco.  (It's the knife with the teeth.) 

Place your knife in the middle of the lids and slice right across.  If you try and keep them all around the same size, it will help, but regardless...it will work.

QUICK!  And there ya go...You're ready for some fresh creations!  In one swipe, at that!  ;)
