BAKED EGGS IN TOMATO CUPS
From Vegetarian Times 2006 posted to www.dgustibus.com A bit of a warning, this recipe is designed to show off garden fresh heirlooms as well as range free chicken eggs. It isn't going to taste the same with factory chicken eggs and shipped tomatoes.

Steps:
- Note the tomatoes should be fresh picked and should be at the point where you can still hollow them out but headed for buttery soft in the next day or so.
- Herbs: oregano,chervil, basil, sage, Mrs. Dash.
- Preheat oven to 425°F while slicing tomatoes. Remove tops the scoop out seeds and pulp.
- Place in a shallow baking dish, sprinkle with a bit of salt or Mrs Dash [I used Italian], fresh ground pepper and put in a pinch of the parmesan cheese.
- Crack the egg into the tomato. Sprinkle with pepper, salt or Mrs. Dash, other herbs and a tiny bit of parmesan.
- Bake for 20 minutes for soft yolks and 30 to 35 for hard. During the last 4 minutes place two slices of the cheddar cheese in a cross pattern on top. Melt and let brown. When I removed I put a small amount of fresh chives on top of the cheese.
- Serves 8.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the taste of your dish, so be sure to select ripe, juicy ones. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and feel heavy for their size.
- Don't overcook the eggs: The key to perfect tomato-egg cups is to cook the eggs gently so that they remain tender and custardy. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery.
- Season to taste: Be sure to season your tomato-egg cups with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic, onion, basil, or oregano, to your liking.
- Serve immediately: Tomato-egg cups are best served immediately, while they are still hot and bubbly. You can garnish them with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of cheese before serving.

Tomato-egg cups are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. They are packed with protein and nutrients, and they can be customized to your liking.
