    I did it with smaller organic tomatoes. The stuffing was good. Next time I will not put inside tomato. I will just use it as a side dish. My family liked it. And we are picky eaters. My son just liked the Orzo. 99 cents at Trader Joes! Woot! Woot! I used half the little bag and it was too much for the four of us. Definitely will use this recipe again.
