Stuffed Tomatoes



I like these even better than stuffed green peppers.  Geoff, not so much. (He still thinks he doesn't like tomatoes - one tomato dish at a time, though, and I'll convince him otherwise.  After all, I used to think I didn't like tomatoes.  How wrong I was.)  But, he liked the stuffing and thinks we should try this filling inside green peppers.



10 oz can diced tomatoes with green chile
1/4 C dry bread crumbs
1/3 C cooked rice (or more to taste, or depending on how many tomatoes you're doing)
1/3 lb smoked cooked sausage, cut into bite sized pieces
A handful of shredded Cheddar cheese
4 large tomatoes

Combine canned tomatoes, bread crumbs, rice, sausage, and a small handful of cheese.

Cut the tops of the tomatoes and scoop out the innards.  Save for another use (we're making spaghetti sauce tonight!).  Stuff tomato shells with sausage mixture.  Sprinkle with additional shredded cheese.

Bake at 400 for 12-15 minutes.
