Stewed Tomatoes

Every summers end brings an abundance of beautiful vine ripe tomatoes. This is one way to use the extras up and preserve some of that flavor. This freezes great and can be doubled or tripled just allow for a longer cooking time to thicken. We usually just enjoy it in little bowls as a side dish, but it makes a great topping for crusty bread as well!

This is a really good way to use up some of the summer tomatoes that you have in your garden. I would not reccomend using store bought tomatoes, unless you know the source. Farmers market would be a great place buy fresh tomatoes if you need to. Lee's -
Stuffed tomatoes Stuffed tomatoes
This recipe originated from my Oma, tho over the years I’ve changed it so much, it’s a whole new dish. The stuffing options are endless. My Oma did ground beef and rice. I’ve experimented with all sorts of meat, grains, veggies, but this is my favorite iteration.Prepping the tomatoes is critical. I prefer any large homegrown tomato, but almost any tomatoes work. Flip the tomato over and cut off a small bit of the end. Scoop out the tomato innards and set aside. Put the lid back on once it’s hollowed. Add a smidge of salt inside each tomato.After you’ve hollowed the tomatoes, you stuff them with the filling. You then pour the insides of the tomatoes, that you’ve flavored, around the stuffed tomatoes. You finish by topping each lid with cheese.If there’s not enough tomato sauce, you can add a diced tomato, some canned tomatoes or tomato sauce.I always serve this with long grain rice because it’s the perfect vehicle for the delicious tomato sauce.
