Here's a real treat for tuna (and tomato) lovers! Try topping these broiled tomatoes with cheddar cheese for a different taste. Ingredients:
2 cans (6-1/8 ounces each) water-packed tuna, drained |
1/2 cup seasoned dry bread crumbs |
1/4 cup chopped onion |
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning |
1 egg, beaten |
4 medium fresh tomatoes |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese |
sour cream, optional |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, separate tuna into very small pieces. Add bread crumbs, onion, mustard, cayenne pepper, Italian seasoning and egg; mix well. In a medium saucepan, cook mixture for 2-3 minutes over medium heat. Set aside. Slice off 1/2 in. of each tomato top. Leaving a 1/4-in.-thick shell, scoop out pulp and discard. Spoon tuna mixture into shells and place in a baking dish. Top with mozzarella cheese and brown lightly under broiler. Garnish with sour cream if desired. Yield: 4 servings. |
