It’s simple to make this soothing treat of coconut milk rice pudding. Although you may use fresh berries or mango, I like to add raisins and peaches.

Ingredients
- 3 tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon salt, or as needed
- 1 summer squash, finely diced
- ½ cup dry herb stuffing mix
- 2 teaspoons dried basil
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

This recipe is by far amazing!! I prepped , baked and ate it all within 40 minutes. I plan to try with corn and corn meal in place of the squash and stuffing mix. I also plan to make with garlic onion pepperoni and salami with out the squash. Yum!!
8.9.18 One-half tomato was lunch today along with a scoop of low-fat cottage cheese. You do want to make it in the summer when tomatoes are at their peak in flavor. One thing that I like about this is that the stuffing doesn’t overshadow the actual flavor of the fresh tomato, they share equally. Quick and easy, healthy, and most importantly, TASTY!
Love it! Adds something to the typical healthy way to eat a veggie.
I really enjoyed this. The man liked it too, but with every bite, he said he wished it had crab meat in it. We do live in crab-land, and it’s summer, so that did not surprise me. Next time, I will increase the S&P, and use fresh basil instead of dried, and maybe add a little garlic and onion to really make it pop. Thanks!
After eating, I felt like i waisted a lot of good ingredients. I like everything in this dish, but the flavor was blah. I will not be making this again.
