How to Make Baked Tomatoes Stuffed With Couscous And Feta

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F).
  2. Bring 1 cup of vegetable stock to a boil in a small saucepan.
  3. Place 1 cup of couscous in a medium bowl and pour the boiling stock over it.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it steam for 10 minutes.
  5. Fluff the couscous with a fork. Stir in 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, mint, and dill), 1/4 cup chopped red onion, and 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  6. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  7. Slice off the tops of 4 large tomatoes. Using a teaspoon, carefully scoop out the seeds and pulp, reserving the pulp if desired for another recipe.
  8. Fill each tomato with the couscous mixture, mounding slightly.
  9. Replace the tomato tops.
  10. Place the stuffed tomatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  11. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tomatoes are tender and the filling is heated through.
  12. Serve immediately. Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired.
