Stuffed tomatoes with sharp cheddar cheese and pan fried bacon. A delicious appetizer for any occasion. This simple idea will make your tomatoes taste a bit better and make your guests happy. I was lucky enough to use my home garden organic tomatoes for this recipe.

Stuffed tomatoes

Our garden has produced a significant amount of tomatoes this year. So naturally we wanted to try something new this year. Stuffed tomatoes with fresh organic tomatoes sounded very appealing. 🙂

It doesn’t take much effort or time to prepare this delicious appetizer. It’s a matter of cutting the tomatoes in half horizontally, scooping out the pulp and stuffing them with tasty cheddar cheese and, bacon.

So ready, set, GO! 🙂 Scoop out and save the pulp, we will be using this for our tomato stuffing. I used a sharp knife and small spoon to take care of the tomatoes, of course after cutting them in halves.
