The Italians call these pomodori ripieni, which means "stuffed tomatoes". I call these a perfect summer pick-me-up great for any time of the year!
What You'll Need
- 3 large tomatoes, cut horizontally, seeds and juice removed and discarded
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
What to Do
- Preheat the oven to 350 degree F.
- Cut the tomatoes in half and scrape out the centers with a spoon; chop the centers very fine and set aside.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper; mix well. Add the chopped tomatoes, butter, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce; mix well.
- Place the cored tomatoes into a 9" x 13" baking dish that has been coated with nonstick cooking spray and fill with the stuffing mix.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the centers are hot but the tomatoes are still holding their shape.
Notes
To remove the seeds and juice from the tomatoes, gently squeeze them after cutting horizontally. That's it! And if you use seasoned bread crumbs you can eliminate the salt and pepper.

Raspberry Cream Danish 
Thanks to shortcuts like frozen puff pastry, we're able to make jaw-dropping pastries like our Raspberry Cream Danish. These are filled with a homemade cream cheese filling, which makes them extra-special. A raspberry in the center and a sprinkle of powdered sugar are the finishing touches to this bakery-style treat.
