Categories     Cheese

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large ripe tomatoes
2 tablespoons cabot salted butter
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
3 teaspoons minced garlic
2 cups fresh breadcrumbs (about 4 slices firm wheat bread)
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese (or extra sharp)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place rack in upper part of oven and preheat oven to 400ºF. Lightly butter a shallow baking dish large enough to hold 8 tomato halves.
  • Pull off stems and cut tomatoes in half crosswise. With a teaspoon, scoop out and discard the seeds. Lightly salt interiors of tomatoes and set upside-down on paper towels to drain.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and stir until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Turn up the heat to medium-high, add bread crumbs and continue stirring until crumbs are golden, about 5 minutes longer.
  • Transfer the crumb mixture to a bowl and stir in cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Spoon mixture into tomato halves and set in prepared dish.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes, or until tomatoes are tender and filling is lightly browned on top. Serve and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm tomatoes that are free of blemishes. Beefsteak, Roma, and heirloom tomatoes are all good choices.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the tomatoes in half. This will help to prevent them from breaking.
  • Scoop out the tomato pulp, leaving a 1/2-inch-thick shell.
  • Season the tomato shells with salt and pepper, and then drizzle them with olive oil.
  • Fill the tomato shells with the stuffing of your choice. Some popular options include cheddar cheese, bread crumbs, ground beef, and rice.
  • Bake the tomatoes in a preheated oven until the filling is cooked through and the tomatoes are tender.
  • Serve the tomatoes hot or cold. They can be enjoyed as a main course or a side dish.

Conclusion:

Cheddar stuffed tomatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that is sure to please everyone at your table.
