Taco Tomatoes





Here's an easy recipe that came from my fiancĂ©'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
