Tomatoes stuffed with capers & tuna | Punjene pome s kaparima i tunom

I love this recipe because it's so easy to make. I mean, it would be so much harder if you needed tuna steaks etc, but using tinned tuna is super fast and of all the processes I think the hardest part (atleast for me) was cleaning out the tomatoes.

If you've never heard of them, stuffed baked tomatoes are a Dalmatian art and there are loads of variations on what you can use as your filling. (Dalmatians call their tomatoes pome, but paradajz is the Croatian-proper term rather than the dialect, just saying)

In addition to this filling, you could also add black/green olives, or there are other stuffing variations like cheese, meat etc. I love this version so that's what I'm sticking to. This filling is so delicious, I dare you not to take a few mouthfuls of the filling (pre-stuffing.)

I love this recipe because it's easy to prepare and makes a great starter or side. It's also a hearty meal (more than one) and when served with a side salad it makes a filling lunch or light dinner. Serve it  with a crisp glass of white and I'm sure you'll hear Dalmatia calling.

Let me know if you tried it, how it went? Was it boom or bust?

Zivjeli! (Cheers and let's live!)
