Campari Tomatoes

Campari Stuffed Tomatoes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 Campari Tomatoes
  • 4 Tbsp ricotta cheese
  • 1 tablespoon green sauce or pesto
  • 2 tablesp grated parmesan
  • 1/4 cup diced provolone
  • 3-4 slices thinof provolone cheese
  • 1/4 cup Plain Breadcrumbs + more only if needed
  • 1 egg

Instructions
 

  • Pre heat oven 400 f
  • Using an apple corer cut out the center of the tomatoes without piercing the bottom- you might need to gently use a paring knife to help remove the center. Squeeze out the seeds and place tomatoes cut side down on a baking sheet coated in olive oil.
  • In a bowl mix together the diced provolone, parmesan cheese and ricotta cheeses with the green sauce and the egg. Gradually mix in about a 1/4 cup of plain breadcrumbs. Add more breadcrumbs a tablespoon at a time if the mixture seems loose.
  • Turn the tomatoes over and fill with mixture using a very small spoon (like an espresso spoon). Using your hands, rub the outside of the tomatoes with olive oil before baking.
  • Bake the tomatoes in the oven for 25 minutes (or until fully cooked); remove pan from oven and lay the remaining provolone slices over the tomatoes and place under the broiler on low until melted.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

Swap out provolone for a milder cheese like mozzarella or fontina.
