Ingredients
- 10 whole Tomatoes
- 4 ounces, weight Mozzarella, Cut Into Ten Pieces
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- ¼ cups Olive Oil
- 2 Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
- 1 bunch Fresh Basil Leaves, Torn
Preparation Instructions
Note: You can easily make this using as many tomatoes as you want, just scale everything accordingly. It’s not so much of a measuring recipe as it is a guide.
Preheat your oven to 325ºF and spray a baking tray with cooking spray.
In each tomato, cut a deep X about halfway through the tomato. Push a piece of mozzarella into each X. Place the tomatoes on the tray and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake in the oven for 25 minutes until the tomatoes start to soften and open. Remove from the oven, drizzle the olive oil and balsamic vinegar on top, garnish with fresh basil, and serve.
