Recipe: Theo's tantalising stuffed tomatoes!
Ingredients:
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/2 tablespoon olive oil or butter
8 ounces fresh chopped spinach
1/2 cup sour cream
2 slices trimmed bacon, cooked and crumbled
a few dashes Tabasco sauce or other hot pepper sauce (optional for kids who don't like hot stuff!)
4 medium firm ripe tomatoes
mixed herbs from the garden
sprinkle of shredded Mozzarella cheese
Method:
In a heavy skillet, cook onion in butter until tender. Stir in spinach; cover and continue to cook for about 4 minutes, until tender. Remove from heat and stir in mixed herbs, sour cream, crumbled bacon. Cut off tops of tomatoes; scoop out centers, leaving shell intact. Add scooped out tomatoe centers to spinach mixture and mix well. Fill tomato shells with spinach/tomato mixture. Place stuffed tomatoes in a lightly greased baking dish; bake at 375° for 20 minutes. Top each stuffed tomato with Mozzarella cheese and continue baking just until cheese is melted. Makes 4 servings - enjoy as a meal or a healthy snack after school!
