It’s hard to imagine improving upon the simple appeal of a Tuscan tomato, but there is a way. Stuff it with cheese and breadcrumbs and bake to perfection.

Serves 6

Prep time: 15 minutes

Cook time: 20 minutes

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Slice the tops off of each tomato. Scoop out the pulp and add to a mixing bowl. Combine the pulp, parsley, basil, breadcrumbs, cheese, oil, salt and pepper and mix well.

Place the tomatoes inside a baking pan and fill each one with the pulp mixture. Drizzle a little olive oil on the top and bake for about 20 minutes until the cheese in melted.
