Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
- Prepare a baking sheet with tinfoil lightly coated in cooking spray. Set aside.
- Slice the top off your tomatoes, on the stem side, and use a small spoon to scrape out the core, seeds and pulp.
- Arrange on your prepared baking sheet. You might need to slice a little off the bottom of each tomato to keep them from rolling around on your pan. They have to be as level as possible.
- Using a brush, paint oil all over the inside and outside of each tomato, and season with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle with basil or thyme and garlic.
- Bake tomatoes for 15 minutes.
- Sprinkle or place a pinch of cheese on the bottom of the tomato.
- Crack an egg and gently slide it into each tomato.
- Sprinkle a quick shake of salt and pepper and some more cheese.
- Return to the oven and bake until eggs are set, 8 to 11 more minutes. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes
- The tomatoes need to stand up straight on the baking tray. You may need to slice a little off the bottom of the tomato so they don't wobble.
- For easy cleanup, wrap your baking sheet with tinfoil and lightly coat it with cooking spray. This also helps prevent them from rolling around while baking.
- Serve immediately after cooking for the best flavor.
- Always preheat your oven to ensure even cooking.
- Experiment with other herbs and spices to alter flavor to suit your personal preference.
