4. Spoon the tuna mixture into the tomato halves.

Tips for Making It Better:

• Use fresh herbs for enhanced flavor: Replace dried oregano with 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh oregano.
• Add a touch of acidity: Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white wine vinegar to the tuna mixture for a tangy twist.
• Enhance the richness: Stir in 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese to the tuna mixture before baking.
• Create a crispy topping: Sprinkle 1/4 cup of bread crumbs over the tomatoes before baking to create a golden-brown crust.
• Add a flavorful sauce: Serve the tuna-stuffed tomatoes with a side of marinara sauce for dipping.
• Vary the vegetables: Experiment with different vegetables in the tuna mixture, such as diced carrots, zucchini, or olives.
• Make it spicy: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the tuna mixture for a spicy kick.
• Add a bit of sweetness: Stir in 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the tuna mixture for a touch of sweetness.
• Use different types of fish: Substitute tuna with canned salmon, mackerel, or sardines for a variety of flavors.
• Try a different stuffing: Instead of tuna, try stuffing the tomatoes with a mixture of cooked quinoa, vegetables, and beans.
