Meat Stuffed Tomatoes

This is super yummy! Reminds me of stuffed bell peppers, but the tomato is so good too and not as spicy!

Ingredients:
4 Large tomatoes {I made 8}
1 lb of ground beef {I used turkey}
1 beaten egg
Salt and pepper
1 cup cooked rice

Small chopped onion

Directions:

Cut a slice off the tops of 4 large washed tomatoes and save.
Scoop out insides with teaspoon and save.
Mix 1 pound of ground meat with 1/2 cup of cooked rice, chopped onion, 1 beaten egg, salt and pepper.
Use the mixture and fill the scooped out tomatoes shells then cover with sliced tomato top.
Put topside down in baking pan and add about 1 inch of water. Bake at 325-F for 45 minutes or until cooked.

Sauce for topping: {Optional}

In a fry pan, brown 3 tablespoon flour in butter, mash the saved tomato pulp and add to pan, add a little sugar to slightly sweeten the sauce, add 1/4 teaspoon ground oregano. Cook until thick. When ready to serve, pour sauce over the stuffed tomatoes.
