Tomatoes are stuffed with a mixture of spinach and bacon, along with sour cream and seasonings. A stuffed tomato recipe, topped with cheese and baked.

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons bacon drippings or butter
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion
  • 8 ounces fresh chopped spinach
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 3 slices bacon, fried and crumbled
  • a few dashes Tabasco sauce or other hot pepper sauce
  • 4 medium firm ripe tomatoes
  • salt, to taste
  • 1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese

Preparation:

In a heavy skillet, cook onion in baking drippings or butter until tender. Stir in spinach; cover and continue to cook for about 4 minutes, until tender. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream.

Cut off tops of tomatoes; scoop out centers, leaving shell intact. Sprinkle tomato shells lightly with salt and fill with spinach mixture.
