Step 2Forming Bat Bodies
iImage Information

Flatten one ball of meat in the palm of your hand and place a tomato in the center of the meat. Gently close the meat around the tomato, taking care to cover the tomato completely. Don't try rolling the meatball between you hands - the slipperiness of the tomato causes the meat to slide completely off. Place each finished meatball on an aluminum foil-lined cookie sheet. The foil makes clean-up much easier, which I failed to use in my own attempt at these fruit bats. I really should have used foil.
Continue making balls until you either run out of meat or tomatoes. Feel free to snack on the leftover tomatoes. DO NOT snack on the leftover meat.
