How to Make Corn Stuffed Tomatoes

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 cup cooked rice, 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen), 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Slice the tops off 4 medium-sized tomatoes and scoop out the seeds and pulp. Reserve the pulp for another use if desired (add to a soup!).
  4. Fill each tomato with about 1/2 cup of the corn-rice mixture.
  5. Place the stuffed tomatoes in a baking dish.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are tender and slightly softened. Serve warm or at room temperature.
