Step 1

Wash and dry the tomatoes. Cut off the tops and use a small spoon to carefully scoop out the seeds and pulp, creating a hollow center. Set the hollowed tomatoes aside on a plate.

Step 3

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Step 4

Carefully spoon the tuna mixture into each hollowed-out tomato, filling them generously.

Step 5

If desired, drizzle a small amount of extra virgin olive oil over the filled tomatoes for added flavor.

Step 6

Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours to serve chilled.

Step 7

Enjoy your Herbed Tuna Stuffed Tomatoes as a fresh and healthy dish!
