Stuffed Tomatoes

Stuffed Tomatoes 

Ingredients

- 12 large tomatoes

- Salt

- Pepper

- Thyme

- 1 tbsp butter

- 1 cup bread crumbs

Directions

1. Cut the tops off of the tomatoes and take out as much as the pulp as you can without damaging the outside. Place the pulp in a separate bowl and chop it up. 

2. Once the pulp is chopped, add salt, pepper, and thyme to taste. 

3. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and about 1 cup bread crumbs and form into a stuffing.  

4. Put the mixture back into the tomatoes and bake them in a moderately hot oven (about 375⁰) until golden brown on top.
