Herb Stuffed Tomatoes image

I saw this recipe on Everyday Italian with Giada De Laurentiis and enjoyed it. It is such a tasty way to use fresh garden tomatoes during the summer months and very easy to make.

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

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)

Steps:

  • 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.
