Italian Baked Stuffed Tomatoes image

I found this recipe on the Premio website, and it was a hit with my husband and best friend. A little to spicy for the kids, but you can always use mild sasuage.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 lb hot Italian sausage or 1/2 lb mild Italian sausage, casings removed
4 large firm tomatoes
2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1 dash salt
1 pinch pepper
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 Degrees.
  • Cut a slice from the top of each tomato.
  • scoop out insides of tomatoes and mash with hands.
  • In a skillet, heat butter and sauté onion, garlic and sausage meat until it is brown and crumbly.
  • Stir in tomato pulp and simmer for ten minutes.
  • Remove Sausage Mixture from pan, put into a big bowl.
  • Add bread crumbs, salt, pepper, and cheese, mixing well.
  • Add as much cheese as you would like.
  • You may not need all the tomatoe pulp either.
  • The final mixture should be kind of sticky, but easily formable.
  • Place tomato shells in a shallow baking dish and fill with sausage mixture.
  • Bake in for thirty minutes.
  • I find that the left over sausage mixture can be put in between the tomatoes, just to bake.
  • I also put grating cheese on top of the tomatoes before baking.
