Tomatoes Stuffed with Mushroom Filling

Can you believe it?! We are still picking tons of tomatoes from the garden. I know it is September but they are still growing, and  also turning red. We’ll probably wait few more weeks before we’ll be ready to say final good-byes. There are so many, just yesterday evening we picked 3 buckets full.

Today I’m sharing a really delicious video recipe tutorial on What To Cook Next. If you haven’t heard yet I’m doing  new series, cooking series on my new you tube channel. Go check it out and please say hello if you have a minute, I’d love to hear you stopped by.

Back to tomatoes, Stuffed Tomatoes. I Love Stuffed Tomatoes and I also love mushrooms. As a kid my parents and my older brother we’d go on countless mushroom pickings into the nearby woods, back in Slovakia. It was so memorable I still remember those days, creeping under the tree trying to pick as many as I could. So naturally I decided to use mushrooms as a main ingredient in my stuffed tomatoes. I hope you like it. I did.
