Here's an easy recipe that came from my fiancé's head. The concept is taco ingredients stuffed inside a hollowed out tomato, covered in cheese, and baked to perfection. They turned out really well. Thanks to my co-worker Morgan for providing all of the fresh tomatoes. I also used some of the tomatoes in the Mexican Rice that I served on the side.
Here's what you'll need:
- 6 large tomatoes
- kosher salt
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 pkg taco seasoning
- 1/4 onion, diced (I used white)
- 1 T cilantro
- 8 oz velveeta cheese, cubed
- salt and pepper, to taste
- shredded cheddar cheese for topping (optional)
- large mixing bowl
- baking pan
