Scoop stuffing mixture into tomato shells place in baking pan and bake at 350 degrees (175 C.) for approximately 25 to 30 minutes or until cheese is melted and tomatoes are heated through. Comments You'll notice that there are no exact amounts listed. I find that once I memorize a recipe I just go by the appearance and taste. Most times you'll find you'll have more stuffing left over after filling the tomatoes. You can freeze it in an airtight container. Or what I'll do is take the left over stuffing mix and make stuffed zuchinni. *** Also, don't be afraid to add things to the recipe. I love adding new things to old recipes and making them my own. The bacon bits were something I added. I love it. I find it just helps to give the recipe a little zing. Enjoy!!
