Baked Stuffed Tomatoes

Ingredients:
4-6 tomatoes, beefsteak or equivalent
S&P
2 c ricotta
1 1/2 c shredded mozzarella or the Italian blend shredded cheese
1 1/2 c fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley, chopped
1 1/2 c fresh basil, chopped
2-3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 1/2 c grated Parmesan/Reggiano cheese
2 egg yolks

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 450

Make 8-12 tomato cups by cutting a small sliver off of both sides of the tomatoes (to create a flat bottom). Then cut the tomatoes in half from top to bottom (through the stem part), trim the stem off of both sides by notching it out of the tomato. Scoop the seeds and stuff from the middle of the tomatoes, leaving tomato cups. Be careful when scooping the stuff out of the tomato, as you don't want to puncture through the skin (helps it hold the cheese in better). Season the tomato cups with salt and pepper, set aside while you work on the filling.

Combine the ricotta, parsley, basil, garlic, and shredded cheese (but not the grated Parm). Season with s&p. Add the egg yolks and stir thoroughly. Spoon into the tomato cups. Sprinkle the top with the grated Parmesan/Reggiano cheese.

Arrange in a baking dish and bake for 15-17 minutes, or until bubbly and starting to brown.
