Description

It works for both holidays and everyday meals. You can use minced meat—the same kind used for stuffed peppers, for example. Or you can make a lighter version and stuff them with cheese. Use a mix of different cheeses; you can even use soft or processed cheese. Serve the tomatoes warm or already cooled. This appetizer is perfect for a picnic, a family dinner, or even a holiday celebration.
