Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Tomatoes (medium-sized, ripe)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme (chopped)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice each tomato in half horizontally and use a spoon to gently scoop out the seeds and pulp. Be careful not to remove too much of the flesh; you want to create a small hollow for the filling.
Place the hollowed-out tomato halves, cut side up, in a baking dish.
In a small bowl, mix together the chopped parsley, basil, thyme, minced garlic, almond flour, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper.
Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the herb mixture and stir until combined. The mixture should resemble a slightly crumbly paste.
Spoon the herb mixture evenly into the hollowed-out centers of the tomato halves, pressing down gently to pack the filling.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top of the stuffed tomatoes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are tender and the filling is golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let the tomatoes cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your low-carb Tomatoes Provençal!
