I have been a vegetarian for over half my life. When I became pregnant with my son, I dabbled in fish for protein. After a scare with melanoma cancer I decided to go vegan and soy-free a couple times a week. My husband and son eat all kinds of meat which makes cooking even more fun and interesting. This blog is a culmination of recipes from seasonal and vegan foods to vegetarian meals that can include fish and other proteins. Every recipe is clean, fresh and mostly veggie!

Jalapeno and Cheese stuffed Tomatoes
I love doing a tapas night and I usually use those nights to experiment on my husband. Tonight I decided to put my own twist on stuffed tomatoes by adding a little kick of jalapeno. They were delicious and super easy to make. You can use these as an appetizer for holiday parties or just for your own tapas night.
Ingredients
3 tomatoes
1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
1/2 jalapeno seeded and shopped finely
1 clove of garlic minced
1 pinch of salt to taste
1 tbs of olive oil
Cut tomatoes in half and scoop out the innards. Place them on a greased baking
sheet. In a bowl mix together mascarpone cheese, parmesan cheese, bread crumbs (leaving a little to top), jalapeno and garlic. If it become hard to mix add a small amount of water to help mix the ingredients together. Add a pinch of salt depending on how salty your parmesan cheese. Scoop a spoonful of cheese mixture into each tomato in equal amounts. Sprinkle bread crumbs on top and a drizzle of olive oil. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes.
Yield 6
