As I often do, I studied some recipes & put my own spin on them. The results were just downright delicious. This makes eating your veggies rather enjoyable.
Ingredients
- 4 whole medium-large red tomatoes shopping list
- 6 oz. fresh spinach, chopped fine shopping list
- 1 tsp minced garlic shopping list
- 1/4 cup (or a bit less) water shopping list
- 1/4 cup white wine shopping list
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated shopping list
- 1/4 cup feta cheese (garlic & herb) shopping list
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs (panko), plus a couple pinches shopping list
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil shopping list
- a couple pinches of salt shopping list
- cooking spray shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Cut the tops off whole tomatoes. Carefully scoop out inside of tomato leaving wall about 1/2 inch thick. Sprinkle with salt and turn upside down on a dish.
- Heat oil in a saute pan over medium heat, be sure to coat entire pan. Add spinach and garlic. Mix well & allow to cook for about two minutes. Add water & wine and let simmer for a few minutes.
- Prepare baking dish by spraying cooking spray.
- Remove spinach & garlic from heat and pour into small mixing bowl. Add Parmesan, Feta, and bread crumbs (all but the extra pinches). Mix well. Add extra cheese and/or bread crumbs as needed/desired.
- Spoon mixture into tomatoes til they are past the brim and round the tops. Sprinkle with remaining bread crumbs. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Keep an eye on them so they do not brown too much. Allow them to cool a bit as they pack a lot of heat just out of the oven.
- These can be made into appetizers using smaller tomatoes such as the cherry variety.

Stuffed tomatoes are great this time of year with all the extra tomatoes in the garden. And the cheese makes it even better!
