Steps:
- Place the bulgur in a large bowl and pour the boiling water over it. Let stand for 1 hour. Drain well. Meanwhile, slice the top 1/4 inch off of the tomatoes. Scoop out the center of the tomatoes, being careful not to tear the shells; reserve the insides for another use. Place the tomatoes, tops and bottoms, on a layer of paper towels, cut side down. Let stand for 30 minutes. Pat the inside of the tomatoes dry.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Add the onion, feta, raisins, parsley and mint to the bulgur and stir to combine. Mix in the olive oil, salt and pepper. Spray a baking sheet lightly with the olive oil. Spoon the filling into the tomato shells, top with the lids and place on the baking sheet.
- Bake just until the tomatoes are tender and the filling is hot, about 20 minutes; do not let the tomatoes get too soft. Divide among plates and serve immediately.
