Equipment

  • cutting board
  • sharp knife
  • pastry piping bag and tip

Ingredients

  • 12 rice crackers
  • 4 oz. whipped cream cheese
  • 2 oz. small sprigs of dill
  • 1 oz. yellow bell pepper
  • 6 cherry tomatoes

Instructions

  • Slice 6 cherry tomatoes in half.
  • Pipe a thin layer of whipped cream cheese onto a rice cracker with a pastry piping bag.
  • Carefully place 4 small sprigs of dill on the top, bottom, left and right of the cracker. Place a sliced tomato in the center.
  • Cut a tiny slice of yellow bell pepper, and dice into tiny rectangles. Place the little rectangle above the tomato and serve.

Notes

I find rice crackers start to go stale after about an hour when refrigerated with the cheese, but they will be tasty up until then. If you want to make them ever further ahead of time, Ritz crackers or other more dense, wheat-based, buttery crackers tend to stay crispy longer.
