Deeeelicious! We removed the mint and added basil. Also, couldn't resist adding some goat cheese -the entree would not be the same without it.

Awesome, and topping with feta is a really great tip. Super easy to make too.

next time check lentils to make sure they don't overcook, and maybe add more lentils, less rice

Very good. I used quinoa instead of rice, scaled the recipe down to 2 servings with 1 tomato (essentially double stuffing, half tomato), and baked in toaster oven minus the "hat". Love the mint, it goes wonderfully with the ingredients. What I didn't like was the tomato middles/garlic "sauce". Just toss the tomato insides and drizzle a tiny amount of oil on top of the stuffed tomato before baking. Use quinoa! It makes recipe is so much better than boring (not healthy) white rice.

Like someone suggested before, I replaced the mint with cilantro and added some cumin to the stuffing. Both my husband and I enjoy it and we eat it pretty regularly now!

This was very good and easy to prepare. I used quinoa instead of rice; I cooked it with the lentils for 15 minutes, and the texture was perfect. The stuffing was slightly sweet, balancing the acidity of the tomatoes perfectly. I used extra garlic in the chopped tomatoes, and I put a spoonful over the stuffing before baking. Although stuffing the tomatoes makes a nice presentation, next time, I'll chop them and mix everything together, and I'll make some extra stuffing, just because it was so delicious.

Excellent Recipe! It's easy to modify (size wise- if you want a 'single' serving) and oh-wow does it taste good. Perfect for my vegetarian friends. A++

This was very good, I never thought of stuffing a tomato with anything other than rice or meat. The only change I made was I could not find red lentils and I used regular but it was still yummy...

This was ok but nothing outstanding. I used green lentils - the store didn't have red - and I added a little bit of garlic to the stuffing as it was a rather bland. I don't think the mint was a good addition - it didn't complement the other flavors terribly well.

Good! You can pretty much add anything to this. Make sure to just cook the rice and lentils according to their package; brands vary their cooking times a lot so the recipe's instructions may not be suitable.

Delicious. I too added feta and pine nuts. About the only other thing I would add would be some cumin in the rice/lentil mixture. Yum.

Very good! I recommend cooking the lentils/rice for 15 minutes on the stovetop so they aren't crunchy, but not more or they will be mushy. Firm tomatoes made scooping out the middles easy, and the cilanto substitution was quite good. Additionally, I added Goat Cheese and Pine Nuts, tented with foil except for last 3 minutes to brown nuts and slightly melt cheese, and left the "caps" off. Yummy, nutty flavor with the mildness of the cheese made this an elegant side dish for the fish I served it with! Would be a good main dish, but Hubby generally likes more than veggies for supper. :)

It was a great hit with my family.My daughter is vegetarian and she loved it.Also my husband loved it who is not a vegetarian.I advise it to anyone who loves tomatoes.Also I did not use the mint but,I did add feta cheese to the rice and I laid a slice of provlone over the top of the tomato under its hat.And I added sliced fresh mushrooms to the tomato sauce you use from the insides of the tomatoes.I also found if you use firm tomatoes it is easier.Enjoy as my family did.!

Very good but I substituted cilanto for the mint and brown rice for the white rice. Also, I used olive oil instead of butter/margarine and vegetable oil. I cooked the rice/lentils longer like the other reviewers suggested but the lentils were mushy after 25 minutes. All in all very tasty.

Very yummy and easy to make! I added a touch of dried chilli to the oil, garlic and tomatoe suace wich complimented the coll of the mint beautifully!
