RECIPE | Chinese Stuffed Tomatoes

Yields8 Servings
I N G R E D I E N T S //
 8 large hot house tomatoes
 2 lbs lean ground turkey
 3 bags riced cauliflower (roughly 36oz)
 2 cups chopped white onion
 ½ cup soy sauce or Coconut Aminos Soy Alternative
 4 tbsp minced garlic
 4 tbsp Vital Farms (salted)
 1 can Asian baby corn
 2 cans water chestnuts
D I R E C T I O N S //
1

First step is to wash all your tomatoes and carefully slice off the tops. Be sure to keep the tops to place back on top to help so the meat doesn’t get dried out during baking!

2

You’ll want to use a melon baller to help you easily clean out the inside of the tomatoes. I try to get a good majority of the insides out so there’s more room to pack the meat inside. Once you’ve got all of them cleaned out, set them aside on a backing sheet.

3

Pre-heat your oven at 375 degrees

4

Now you’ll want to toss in 2 tbsp. Of butter, onion and 2 tbsp. Minced garlic to a medium-large sauté pan (big enough for the 2 Lbs. of turkey you will need to cook) over medium heat. Cook together until the onions are aromatic and begin to get translucent.

5

Then you can add in your ground turkey and begin to brown

6

Meanwhile, in another skillet, toss in 1 tbsp. Of minced garlic, 2 tbsp. Butter, chopped watercress and the chopped baby corn. Sautee over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Then add in 3 tbsp. Of soy sauce and continue sauteing.

7

Next, add in all your riced cauliflower and sauté with the veggies and add ¼ cup soy sauce to the rice mixture. Stirring over medium heat until the veggies all look like they have soaked up the soy sauce and are cooked thoroughly

8

Now you will combine 3 cups of the cauliflower rice mixture to your ground turkey and stir in the remainder of the soy sauce. Once the rice and turkey are mixed together, then you’re ready to stuff your tomatoes.

9

Add in about a half cup of the mixture (or maybe a little more? I honestly just eyeball this part) to each tomato. You’ll want to stuff enough so it fills it up but don’t overflow the tomato. Then you can place the tomato top back on to prevent dry out!
