Eggs Baked in Tomatoes
Description
A tasty appetizer for any gathering. Very unusual, delicious, and impressive! The tomato should be fairly firm and large; the main thing is not to damage the walls when you scoop out the flesh, otherwise the egg will leak out. You can add bacon or lightly smoked fatback, and any herbs will work—even dried ones. If you don't like runny eggs, bake in the oven a little longer. The appetizer is ready. Serve immediately.
