I was ridiculously pleased with myself when I made this dish successfully for myself and Anno. My supermarket had these enormous beef tomatoes and I found several recipes on the net. I cut off a lid, scooped out the soft bits, baked the shells and lids for about 15 minutes. I cooked rice and mixed it with peas, the pulp, and grated cheese and black pepper. I filled the tomatoes, put the lids on and gave them another 15 minutes. They were delicious. Most of you have probably been cooking them for years, but I had never tried it before. We had them with salmon steaks.

That sounds nice, easy and tasty - think I will try that - have a glut of tomatoes still and keep trying new ways of serving them.

I'm going to try that. Sounds easy enough even for me.

I can confirm the success of Greatnan's stuffed tomatoes - very tasty and not too filling. A recipe that could be varied according to what you had in the cupboard/fridge/freezer.

They sound delicious - I love stuffed tomatoes.

Has anyone ever come across a way of using green strawberries? This time every year I have loads that will not turn red. Such a waste - any ideas? hmm

when Try green strawberry chutney! Maybe add in a courgette or two to add bulk. Sweet with a hint of chilly - delicious. Go steady on the liquid.

Oh, thanks Butty. I wondered if I could make chutney and have searched high and low for recipes. Could find nothing on any of the websites I tried. I'll have a bash this weekend smile
