Broccoli and Cheese Stuffed Tomatoes
Ingredients
6 medium tomatoes
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped broccoli
1 cup shredded cheddar or Swiss cheese
1 cup soft breadcrumbs
1/2 cup low-fat mayonnaise
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
Cut the tops off of the tomatoes. Using a melonballer or spoon, carefully remove the insides. Season insides with salt and pepper, and then place them, cut side down, on paper towels to drain for about 30 minutes.
Cook broccoli according to package directions. Drain and add the cheese, breadcrumbs and mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Stuff the broccoli mixture inside the tomatoes. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Place in a baking dish and bake at 350 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes.
Suggestions
Frozen asparagus tips would make a great substitute for the broccoli.
