Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Medium-sized tomatoes
- 120 grams Cream cheese (softened)
- 60 grams Grated cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper (or to taste)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 60 grams Breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Carefully cut the tops off the tomatoes and scoop out the seeds and pulp using a spoon. Set the hollowed tomatoes aside and discard the pulp (or reserve it for another dish).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, grated cheddar cheese, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
Fill each hollowed tomato with the cream cheese mixture, packing it gently and leveling the top.
In a small bowl, toss the breadcrumbs with olive oil until lightly coated.
Sprinkle a generous amount of the breadcrumbs over the top of each stuffed tomato to create a crunchy topping.
Arrange the stuffed tomatoes on the prepared baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are golden and crisp.
Remove the tomatoes from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm as an appetizer or side dish.
