Simple stuffed baked tomatoes
This is really easy to put together and is a great way to use up tomatoes left over from another recipe make 1 or 10. This would make for a great appetizer for an Italian themed dinner. This is also a tricky way to eat more tomatoes which are really packed with nutrition.

Shredded cheese
Tomato sauce (any kind)
Method:
Step 1: Cut your tomatoes two inches from the top
Step 2: Clean out all seeds with a spoon and rinse with water
Step 3: Crush crackers in a ziplock bag you can use your hands or a rolling pin both work
Step 4: add crushed crackers to hallowed out tomatoes
Step 5: Top with tomato sauce and finally add the shredded cheese
Step 6: with the tops off bake for 5 minutes at 350 (bake the tops too)
Step 7: re-add tops and bake for another 5 minutes
Done!
Tips
*If you bake at a higher temperature it'll cook faster but that may also mean you may lose shape and texture
*You want them to be warm but not soggy
*If you add a bit of ham in it will send this over the edge or meat in general
*If you don't have crackers you can make some stuffing and fill with that instead just skip the pasta sauce if you do so. Stuffing + Pasta sauce = Gross
