Feta Orzo Stuffed Tomatoes



Here's a recipe I can't wait to try. It's a great "no-cook" meal that won't heat up your kitchen during the hot summer.

1 cup cooked orzo, cooled
2/3 cup finely chopped bell peppers (orange, red, yellow)
1/2 cup reduced-fat feta cheese crumbles
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
1/4 tsp finely grated lemon peel
1 1/2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4 tomatoes

1. Combine all ingredients except tomatoes.
2. Cut the top off each tomato and scoop out seeds and inner membranes. Stuff tomatoes with orzo mixture and serve.
