Look out tomatoes, we’ve got our eyes on you… for dinner! So easy it’s barely a recipe, these googly-eyed tomatoes are as fun to make as they are to eat and come together in minutes for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Method:

Slice the tops off the tomatoes carefully. Scoop out the seeds and flesh on the inside, so you just have a thick-walled tomato ‘bowl’. Then place them on a lined baking tray.

Crack the eggs into the tomatoes (if you are nervous about it, crack them one at a time into a cup first, and then slide each one into the tomatoes).

Bake in an oven preheated to 190C/gas 5 for about 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are cooked but still holding their shape.

Plop two googly-eyed tomatoes onto a plate for each person. Then let them decorate the plate to make their own funny food face!

Splodge your spoon or fork in and tuck into the best googly-eyed tomatoes the world has ever seen!

Power Up: Don’t waste the inside of the tomatoes – this is tomato spawn and the best thing to do is slurp it raw!
