For a vegetarian option, substitute the smoked sausage with cooked quinoa or lentils. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the filling for extra heat. For a richer flavor, use a blend of Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese. These stuffed tomatoes can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator until ready to bake. Add about 5-10 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. Serve as a side dish or as a light lunch with a side salad.

Feb 2, 2025Easy to follow and the tomatoes turned out perfectly. I used Italian sausage instead of smoked, and it was still great.

Jul 16, 2024I thought the sausage was a bit too salty, I will try using less salt or a different type of sausage next time.
