How to make it
- Slice the top 1/4 portion off of the tomatoes
- Using a spoon, scoop out the seed and juice. I wanted to leave the "meat" of the tomato
- *Some of my tomatoes still had some of the core in the middle, I used a paring knife to take that out when needed*
- Lightly salt the tomatoes and place upside down on papertowels to drain, for about 15 minutes
- Preaheat oven to 375
- While tomatoes are draining, mix all other ingredients together, by hand
- Will be a "wet, crumbly" texture
- Stuff mixture into all the crevices in tomatoes, by had, and covering the top of the tomato
- (I had some of the mixture leftover, saving it to put in a meatloaf)
- Butter a glass baking dish, and place tomatoes in dish
- Bake about 45 minutes
- Garnish with fresh basil (I was out, so that's not reflected in the pic)
