Cooking Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While the oven is heating, prepare your tomatoes by carefully coring and hollowing them out. Set aside the insides for later use if desired.
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef along with diced onions until the meat is fully cooked and the onions are soft. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in the taco seasoning, mixing well to combine. If using, add corn and spinach to the beef mixture. Cook for a few more minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Fill each hollowed tomato with the beef and vegetable mixture, packing it down gently. Top each filled tomato with a generous amount of cheese.
Place the stuffed tomatoes in a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Taco Stuffed Tomatoes are a great option for using summer produce.
Extra Tips:
Feel free to get creative with your taco stuffed tomatoes! You can substitute ground beef for ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
Additionally, consider adding cooked rice or quinoa to the filling for extra texture and nutrition.
These stuffed tomatoes can also be made ahead of time and reheated, making them a convenient choice for busy weeknights.
Serve them with your favorite toppings like sour cream, salsa, or guacamole for an added burst of flavor!
