This was a really fast and easy dinner. It's perfect as a main dish or as a side. I make it with home grown tomatoes and peppers, so it's extra delicious. Left over stuffing can also be eaten as a rice salad or mixed with meat and rolled in a tortilla. This recipe makes about 10 medium to small sized tomatoes
