Curried stuffed tomatoes


The next several posts will be dedicated to the recipes I tried for my New Year's Eve party. They were all new and thus quite an experiment! These tomatoes are adapted from a recipe that I found on Giverecipe.com. The lady who runs that site originally filled these with feta and served them cold (no baking). I wanted something warm for a chilly night though.

Ingredients:
-12 small tomatoes
-3/4 cup part skim ricotta cheese
-Curry powder

Directions:
-Set oven at 350
-Spray cooking dish lightly and wipe off most oil
-Carve the tops of all of the tomatoes off
-Remove seeds, etc. from tomatoes
-Fill tomatoes with cheese (I mix cheese a bit first)
-Sprinkle with curry powder
-Place tomatoes in dish and cover
-Cook 25-30 minutes

Nutrition: less than 36 calories per tomato

This recipe is very basic and can be jazzed up by using different cheeses and spices. You can also experiment with tomato size.
