Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. 

  2. Take large sun-ripe tomatoes. Cut in half and core out the inside putting the pulp aside in a bowl.

  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lay out the tomatoes on the pan. Drizzle with olive oil and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the size. 
  4. While the tomatoes are baking, add the tomato pulp to the ground beef or rice, then add the chopped parsley, basil, capers, olive oil, a pinch of sea salt, cracked black pepper, olives, and Parmigiano cheese, and mix well.
  5. Remove the tomato halves from the oven, and let cool. Once cooled, fill each tomato with the mix.

  6. If you have extra stuffing, make little balls, place them on the baking sheet, and bake too. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven, let cool and serve.
