Tuna and Goat Cheese Stuffed Tomatoes

"My neighbor delivered a very large bag of his summer tomatoes, and I didn't want them to go to waste. I experimented with the stuffing mixture until my husband loved this combo. Easy, tasty, satisfying, and a good choice for hot summer nights!" — Linda Glenn

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Cut a thin slice off the top of each tomato, and gently scoop out pulp and seeds, leaving a 1/2 inch wall. Finely dice 1/2 cup of the pulp and set aside. Season the inside of each hollowed tomato with pinches of salt and pepper.
Mix reserved diced tomato pulp, goat cheese, mascarpone cheese, tuna, red onion, cucumber, mushrooms, red pepper, celery, garlic, and sesame seeds in a large bowl.
Scoop mixture into tomato shells up to the top of each tomato. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet.
Sprinkle each tomato with sunflower seeds, Parmesan cheese, garlic salt, onion powder, salt, and pepper. If desired, sprinkle each tomato with parsley flakes and Worcestershire sauce.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, then broil right before serving until tops are lightly browned, about 1 to 2 minutes.

I am super stingy with 5 star ratings, so you know I think this is awesome. The worcestershire sauce takes it over the top, so I wouldn't call it an "optional" ingredient.

Didn't have mascarpone so I skipped. Didn't bake, served over sliced tomatoes for a nice cold lunch.

These are so good! I had a lot of the filling left over, so I made them for lunch the next day by heating up the filling in the microwave to melt the cheeses, and then just broiling it in the tomatoes for a minute. They were even better! Wonderful recipe for goat cheese and tomato lovers!

My husband and I loved this recipe. Its very very good. I did not have mascarpone cheese and used queso fresco instead, I also forgot to put the mushrooms and parsley but it was awesome anyway.
