Ingredients

• 6 whole Roma tomatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Wash the Roma tomatoes and cut them in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the seeds and pulp using a spoon, leaving a hollow center to stuff.

Step 3

Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh parsley.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, parsley, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and mix until the breadcrumbs are coated and the mixture is evenly combined.

Step 5

Fill each hollowed tomato half with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to pack it in.

Step 6

Arrange the stuffed tomatoes on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle the tops with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tomatoes are tender and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.

Step 8

Remove the tomatoes from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving. Optionally, garnish with extra chopped parsley or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.

Step 9

Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish. Enjoy your Tomato Delights!
