How to Make B L T Stuffed Tomatoes
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Slice the tops off the 6 large ripe tomatoes using a serrated knife and reserve the tops.
- Remove and discard the cores from the tomatoes.
- Using a small spoon, gently scoop out the tomato pulp and seeds, reserving about 1/2 cup of the pulp and bits.
- Invert the tomato shells and let them drain upside down on paper towels for 10 minutes.
- While tomatoes drain, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain. Crumble bacon once cooled.
- In a medium bowl, combine the reserved tomato pulp, shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, sliced green onions, mayonnaise, vinegar, Beau Monde seasoning, hot pepper sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Gently stir in the crumbled bacon.
- Place the tomato shells upright on a baking sheet.
- Spoon the lettuce mixture into the tomato shells, mounding slightly.
- Replace the tomato tops.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tomatoes are heated through and the filling is bubbly.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
