Ingredients

• 4 Eggs
• 4 large tomatoes (remove the inside to create a space to place the ingredients)
• 50-70 g grated mozzarella cheese
• A bunch of green onion (chopped)
• 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
• Salt to taste
• Ground black pepper to taste
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Preparation

1. Prepare the tomatoes: Cut off the top of each tomato and carefully empty the inside, leaving enough space to place the egg and the rest of the ingredients.
2. Mix the ingredients: In a bowl, mix the eggs, chopped green onion, grated mozzarella cheese, mayonnaise, salt and pepper to taste.
3. Stuff the tomatoes: Spoon egg mixture into each tomato until filled.
4. Baking: Place the stuffed tomatoes on a baking sheet previously greased with olive oil. Bake at 200° C, for 25 minutes or until the eggs are cooked and the tomatoes look golden brown.
5. Presentation: Serve the stuffed tomatoes with a side of leafy greens or toasted bread, to taste.

Additional Tips:

• Variety of cheeses: You can substitute mozzarella for other types of cheese such as cheddar, feta, or gouda to give it a different touch of flavor.
• Spicy touch: If you like a little spicy at breakfast, add a pinch of sweet or spicy paprika to the egg mixture or even a few drops of chili sauce or similar.
• Additional sauce: To enhance the flavor, you can make a sauce with the inside of the tomatoes you’ve removed. Add a minced garlic clove, a little salt, and a teaspoon of cornstarch to thicken the mixture. Simmer and serve the hot sauce along with the stuffed tomatoes.
• Accompaniments: This recipe pairs nicely with whole-grain toast or even sliced avocado for a more complete and nutritious breakfast.
