"Posting for ZWT5. Did a little tweaking, first! Goes well on a plate of tapas. I really like this recipe, as it gets rid of the insides. Why do today's tomatoes all seem to be very woody?!"

Serves:: 4-6

ingredients

3 medium tomatoes
4 hard-boiled eggs
6 tablespoons garlic, onion and caper mayonnaise
salt & pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
white breadcrumb, as needed
olive oil

directions

Core the tomatoes. Prepare a bowl of iced water that will hold all the tomatoes. Skin the tomatoes by placing in boiling water about 10 seconds. Plunge into iced water to stop cooking. Just peel skin off. Slice off the tops and just a little bit off the bottom so they stand upright. Carefully remove innards. (I use a grapefruit spoon to do this. Gets it really clean!) Set aside.
Mash the eggs with the mayonnaise, salt & pepper, breadcrumbs and parsley. The filling needs to be the consistency of stiff mashed potatoes. Stuff the tomatoes, pressing down the filling firmly. They need to be really firm, as they will be sliced. Brush with olive oil and black pepper. Cover and refrigerate.
When ready to serve, carefully cut into approx 1/2" rings . Sprinkle with chopped parsley.
Garlic, Onion and Caper Mayonnaise:.
1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tbsp chopped garlic, 1 tbsp drained capers,1 tbsp chopped red onion.

We had this as a side dish to go with a beef roast last evening. The flavoring sensation as a whole is on the mild side. But it is one of those dishes that I know I will make often, and particularly on a hot evening when I just am not in the mood to stand over a hot stove but I want a plate of healthy, tasty dishes. Thanks AuntSana. Made for 2009 Zaar World Tour #5.

As you can see, I've been on "Zaar quite a while now, and have reviewed quite a few recipes. Just like everyone else who's been around for a while, my rating system has undergone a change. *****Rocked my socks off. Won't change a thing! ****A good solid recipe. Enjoyed it. Might need a small change for personal preferences. ***Needs some help. Might be an operator error, but can't make it work. As all the recipes I choose are chosen because of the ingredients that we like, I will not give less than ***. And, please, keep in mind that this is only my personal opinion. Someone else might think it is wonderful and give *****. So keep posting! BTW, if I forget to thank you for taking the time to prepare one of my recipes, it is unintentional! My biggest passion is my reading. I can't go to bed at night until I have read something, even if its the back of a bag of potato chips! But that ain't gonna happen. I have over 300 books in my bedroom book shelves, and we have even more in the rest of the house! <embed src="http://www.clocklink.com/clocks/5025-white.swf?TimeZone=MST&" width="180" height="180" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> ACTIVITIES & SUCH: <img src="http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/Herb1BaySTKR.jpg"> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/snow-queens-sm.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>What a round!
