I'm not sure why this recipe has so many positive reviews. I made it exactly as written and it was the worst thing I've ever eaten.

I'm allergic to tomatoes, so I made this recipe with cherry tomatoes instead. They turned out great!

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few extra ingredients to make it my own. I usually add some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and a pinch of red pepper flakes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tomatoes turned out really bland. Maybe I didn't use enough herbs?

These tomatoes are a great way to use up leftover herbs. I always have a bunch of basil and parsley in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up.

This recipe was a hit! The tomatoes were juicy and flavorful, and the herb stuffing was perfectly savory. I served them as a side dish with grilled chicken, and they were a big hit with my family.
