I thought these were pretty good. I knew from the amount of basil, it would be way too much to me so I did 1 leveled tsp and also cut the pepper in half. The tomatoes took some time to cut and scoop out the pulp, but I saved some time by using microwavable instant rice in a bag. I also had enough filling to do one extra tomato. When done, I sprinkled some cheese on top and put them back in the oven for a few minutes. They were good but I know they would be even better with fresh garden tomatoes.

The stuffing was really good. I didn't feel like putting it in the tomatoes was really worth the effort of carving them though. I think next time I will just try chopping the tomatoes, adding them to the stuffing and then serving that over rice.

Not terrible, but not great. I won't make these again. They're too time-consuming for just a mediocre result.

Great recipe. I followed the recipe but added some garlic and my husband thought it would be good with some corn added to the meat mixture so I did that also. It was great, I will do it again.

This recipe was a great way to use up several of my numerous garden tomatoes. I used 8 good-sized tomatoes instead of 6. To save the step of cooking the rice separately, I reserved all the tomato pulp/juice, added it all to the pan with maybe 1/4 cup addtl water, and then stirred in a little over a 1/4 cup of UNcooked rice. Then I covered and simmered til the rice was cooked. I also had to use up ground lamb, so used that instead of beef; and that was delicious. Stirred the cheddar into half the filling, and stirred feta into the other half. Both were really good. I did also sprinkle in some garlic powder, which added a nice flavor. And even though I used more tomatoes than called for, the filling came out just right to fill them all. My husband says this recipe is a keeper, and I like how flexible it is.

Very delicious! I used the ground beef, onion powder instead of fresh onion, fresh garlic, basil from my garden, mozzarella cheese, parmigiana cheese and an egg. My entire family enjoyed it.

So healthy, delicious and filling!! Only thing I did differently was that I used ground turkey instead of ground beef, so since turkey tends to be dry I added some more diced tomatoes. Very Yummy!!
