Aztecs
used the tomato in their cooking. The exact date of domestication is
may never be known but by 500 BC, it was already being grown in
southern Mexico and probably other areas. Yes it is a member of the
Nightshade family but no it was NOT thought to be poison! Cooking
this “fruit” brings out some fantastic chemicals that are very
beneficial. Besides, it tastes good and is low fat!
This
basic idea is like the stuffed pepper recipe, only much simpler to
make. Think of it as an upside down, inside out cheeseburger!
Ingredients:
1
lbs ground beef
1
red onion
8
oz fresh mushrooms
1
tbs Worcester sauce
3 large tomatoes
cheese
Directions:
slice
and chop the red onion
Rinse
and chop the mushrooms
In
a skillet over medium low heat saute the red onion in oil
stirring for about 5 minutes.
Add the chopped mushroom and cook for
another 5 minutes.
Remove
with slotted spoon.
Brown
the ground beef over medium high heat until well cooked and add the
onion and mushroom back and stir in the Worcester sauce.
Let
simmer while you rinse the tomatoes and cut down the center of each.
With a teaspoon, scoop out the seeds and insides of each.
Place
in an 8 x 8 baking dish as each is finished.
Turn
on the broiler.
Carefully
fill each tomato with the beef mixture and top with a piece of
cheese. Pour about ½ inch of water into the bottom of the dish.
Slide
under the broiler, at least 3 – 4 inches from the element or flame.
Watch
carefully as you only want to melt the cheese and give it touches of
light brown edges.
Serve
with a side of vegetables.
