Herb Stuffed Tomatoes
Ready In: 50 mins
Serves: 6-8
Ingredients
- 5 beefsteak tomatoes
- 1 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
- 3⁄4 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1 cup provolone cheese, grated
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, finely minced (optional)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Cut the tomatoes in half, horizontally. Seed by gently squeezing the tomato halves. Use a small spoon to gently hollow out the inside of the tomatoes, being careful not to puncture the outer shell. Reserve the pulp.
- Chop the reserved pulp and put in a medium bowl. Add the parsley, bread crumbs, cheese, optional garlic, and pepper and mix gently to combine.
- Place the tomato halves in a buttered casserole dish, and fill with the bread crumb mixture.
- Drizzle the top of the tomatoes with olive oil. Bake until the tops are browned, about 20 minutes.
