You may have heard of stuffed bell peppers before, but why not stuff some fresh tomatoes instead? So that's what we did! They're filled with onion, carrots, bell peppers, cooked rice, and shredded cheese. You'll love how quickly they come together, as they can be made from start to finish in just half an hour. After scooping out the seeds and flesh of the tomatoes, don't throw them out; save them for soups, stews, and sauces. This tasty side dish also works nicely as a light lunch and can easily be scaled up if you're serving for a family dinner or a crowd.
