Stuffed Tomato (In Which We Use Peppers)

Recipe: Summer Stuffed Heirloom Tomatoes // Serious Eats

We spent a glorious labor day weekend in Ithaca, NY. While there, we visited Wegmans at least three times. On our last stop on the way out of town, we picked up a bunch of local produce. We found ourselves left with much of it at the end of the week, and needed a recipe that made use of it.

This was great! We didn't have tomatoes, but we had big peppers, and the substitution was fine in my opinion. I was afraid this recipe was going to be too veggie-y for me, but it really wasn't. We used fontina cheese because it melts beautifully (and we were out of mozzarella). It had a sharper taste, which I enjoyed. Seth was liberal with the olive oil. The fresh basil was essential. Definitely a good one for summertime produce.
