In some areas tomatoes might not be ready yet, but I couldn't wait to share this one, after the homemade mozzarella recipe from Monday - it's just too tasty! So if you don't have ripe tomatoes yet, you may want to bookmark this one for later....
Bubbly Hot Cheesy Stuffed Tomatoes
(Makes 4 servings.)
Ingredients:
4 plum tomatoes
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 Tbsp grated fresh Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn small
1 garlic clove, minced or grated
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Cut the plum tomatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the insides out onto a work surface, setting the tomato shells on a baking sheet, cut side up.
- Chop up the insides that you scooped out and put in a bowl.
- Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and mix together until well blended.
- Spoon this mixture into the tomato shells on the baking sheet. Top with more Parmesan cheese if desired.
- Put in oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and starting to brown.
- Remove and let cool slightly. Serve warm.
