Reviews
Very tasty and oh so very easy to prepare. This is my go to dish for sure.
I would suggest adding rice.
Too much work. Didn’t even finish
Made the mistake of using a too spicy canned diced tomatoes—but they were still very good and easy to make. Next time I’ll use a really mild flavored brand.
Truth be told, I think this is a five star recipe. My hubs is just not too crazy about stuffed tomatoes, so….4 *. Our end of season glean was too small to preserve and needed to be eaten. This recipe did the trick. I did use the scooped out tomatoes (chopped up) and a half can of chopped green chilis instead of the Rotel, but that was because I couldn’t see wasting that beautiful fruit. Yummy!
very good
I used ground beef onions whole grain rice and some spices … I also just used the inside of the tomato diced up and did not use the canned tomatoes … I used a jabenero and Monterey Jack mixture on top with a side of garlic bread
Used hot breakdast sausage and topped it with a fried egg. Great brunch meal.
Doubled the recipe and made stuffed zucchini and it was very good to..
I have some ideas on how to make it more to my taste. But it was okay for something new.
I regret having to give this simple recipe a poor review. There is no texture. There is almost no flavor. Of the three people I made this for none asked for seconds and two said I should not make it again. Apologies, this is just not worth making.
Made vegetarian ones but baked them in a muffin pan rather than a baking sheet. They turned out well!
It is so easy to make and the filling is very tasty. I will definitely make this again!
These stuffed tomatoes are delicious. I used andouille sausage and instead of the canned tomatoes, I used the scooped out pulp. I drained the pulp of excess liquid. I cooked at 400 for about 20 minutes and then turned the oven to 350 and cooked for another 10 minutes. This is definitely a ” do again”.
So good! Use the insides of the tomato with peppers rather than the canned rotel and this would be 5 stars! I have made this with or without the sausage and both are delish!! Thanks for the idea. So good. I even tried them with grits and bacon inside. So many ways to jump start a great idea.
I was looking for a new recipe to use up some tomatoes that were going bad and I would definitely make these again. The recipe is a great base and can easily be adjusted to what you want to use up or have on hand. I used sweet Italian sausage with Gouda cheese, omitted the breadcrumbs, added onions and the insides of the tomatoes. Mmm!
This was a very good meal and easy to make. My husband loved it.
I made it with sage ground breakfast sausage for 5 people and doubled the recipe and it turned out great! so yummy!!!!
This was a very tasty dish for how simple the recipe was. Instead of sausage I used bacon, and instead of bread I used crumbled crackers. It was so surprising how filling and delicious it was! Great make!
This was awesome! This is a repeat meal!!
Used the cut out parts of the tomatoes instead of canned – phenomenal!! This was extremely filling and cheap to do! Love it.
