Ingredients

  • 4 large whole tomatoes
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 tbsps heavy cream
  • 4 tbsps parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 4 dashes salt
  • 4 dashes black pepper

Directions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 350° F (180° C).
  • Cut a slice off the tops of the tomatoes and, using a teaspoon, carefully scoop out the pulp and seeds without piercing the shells.
  • Turn the tomato shells upside down on paper towels and let drain for 15 minutes. Season the insides of the shells with salt and pepper.
  • Place the tomatoes in an oven proof dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer.
  • Carefully break 1 egg into each tomato shell, then top with 1 tablespoon of cream and 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are just set. Serve hot.
  • Note: shredded asiago or other cheeses work well too.
