I thought BLT tomatoes sounded great and they were! I made some minor changes based on other reviews and on what I had on hand; my lettuce of choice was baby spinach, I added a couple of scallions I needed to use up, I added Parmesan cheese (to hold the stuffing together and because I love cheese.), I used panko bread crumbs because that's what I had, and I added the chopped garlic to the stuffing. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to add the tomato flesh to the stuffing but I did chop and add it. It's was delicious, the texture was perfect, not a sloppy mess at all! I made it as a side to a pork loin and all I wanted was the tomato!
