Ingredients
- 4 large beefsteak tomatoes
- 1 cup prepared Minute Multi-Grain Medley
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 3 cups fresh baby spinach
- 1 cup ricotta cheese I used part-skim
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- chopped green onions or italian parsley for garnish.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Slice the tops off of each of the 4 tomatoes. Using a spoon, scoop out the insides of each tomato. You may have to use a small sharp knife to remove some of it. Set aside the scooped out tomato because that could be used in another recipe.
- Set aside the tomato "shells."
- Combine water and contents of one bag of Minute Multi-Grain Medley in a medium saucepan over medium high heat and stir. Bring to a boil. Then turn down the heat, cover and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the water is absorbed.
- In a large skillet over medium high heat, add oil. Add garlic and stir for about a minute. Then stir in the fresh baby spinach and continue stirring for 2 or 3 minutes until it wilts.
- In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, the cooked spinach and garlic, and a 1/2 cup of the Minute Multi-Grain Medley. Stir in Italian seasoning and parmesan cheese.
- Spoon ricotta mixture into each tomato. I find that an ice cream scoop works well for this. Sprinkle more parmesan cheese on top.
- Bake the tomatoes in a preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
