BAKED TOMATOES STUFFED WITH BULGUR, FETA AND RAISINS



Baked Tomatoes Stuffed With Bulgur, Feta and Raisins image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 1h30m

Yield Four main-dish servings or eight side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup bulgur
3 cups boiling water
8 medium tomatoes, ripe but firm
1 small red onion, peeled and diced small
1/2 cup crumbled feta
1/3 cup golden raisins
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Olive oil spray

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.
