Ingredients

- 1 lb (454 g) Ground Beef
- 1 small Yellow Onion, approx. 4 oz (115 g)
- 2 cups (480 ml) Macaroni, cooked
- 4 large Tomatos, approx. 6 oz (170 g) each
- 1 1/2 cups (6 oz / 170 g) Cheddar Cheese, shredded

Instructions

1. Cut the tops off the Tomatos and scoop out the centers to create shells. In a skillet, cook the Ground Beef with the chopped Yellow Onion until beef is no longer pink and onion is softened; stir in the cooked Macaroni.  
2. Spoon the beef-macaroni mixture into each Tomatos shell, top with Cheddar Cheese, and bake at 375°F (190°C) until the Tomatos are tender and the cheese is melted, about 15–20 minutes; serve one stuffed tomato per person.
