How to Make Baked Tomatoes W Broccoli Stuffing

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cut 1/4 inch slice off the tops of 6 medium tomatoes. Scoop out the pulp, reserving about 1 cup, being careful not to break the tomatoes.
3. Sprinkle the inside of the tomatoes lightly with salt and turn them upside down on a paper towel-lined plate to drain for 10 minutes.
4. In a medium bowl, combine the reserved tomato pulp with 1 cup chopped cooked broccoli, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, a pinch of Accent seasoning (optional), 2 tablespoons grated onion, and 2 tablespoons crumbled cooked bacon.
5. Mix thoroughly and fill the tomatoes with the broccoli mixture.
6. Dot each tomato with 1 teaspoon of butter or margarine.
7. Place the stuffed tomatoes on a greased baking sheet.
8. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft but not mushy. Watch carefully to prevent overbaking; they may split if overcooked.
9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
