Instructions

1
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C. Carefully hollow out the tomatoes, making sure to reserve the pulp for later use. This will create a perfect cavity for the stuffing.
2
Step 2
In a pan, sauté the chopped onion and zucchini in olive oil until they become soft and fragrant. Once done, blend this mixture with the tuna and reserved tomato pulp to create a smooth filling.
3
Step 3
Season the blended mixture with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Stuff this flavorful mixture into the hollowed tomatoes, ensuring they are well-packed.
4
Step 4
Generously top each stuffed tomato with grated mozzarella cheese. This will melt and create a deliciously golden crust during baking.
5
Step 5
Arrange the stuffed tomatoes in a baking dish. Bake them in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Step 6
Once baked, serve the stuffed tomatoes hot. Garnish with fresh herbs like basil or parsley for an added touch of freshness.
