Title:   Baked Stuffed Tomatoes
Category:   Main Dishes - Clean (Only natural/organic ingredients), Vegetarian
From:   Moosewood
Ingredients:  
6 medium tomatoes (about 2 1/2 lbs.)
Sea salt and pepper
2 1/2 c grated cheese- such as cheddar, dilled Havarti, or Fontina
1/2 c finely chopped scallions
1 t dried oregano, dill or thyme- or 1 T chopped fresh- optional
Directions:   Preheat the oven to 400F. Cut the tomatoes in half and scoop out the seeds. Oil a baking dish large enough to hold the tomato halves side by side. Place the tomato halves cut-side up in the dish. Sprinkle them with salt and pepper.

In a bowl, combine the cheese, scallions and herbs. Spoon the filling into the tomato halves. Cover the baking pan with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Uncover and bake until the filling is hot and the cheese is melted, 5 to 10 minutes longer.
Makes:   4 to 6 servings
