Instructions: Lightly grease grill and preheat barbecue to high.

Halve tomatoes lengthwise. Squeeze out juice and seeds. Using a knife, cut out centre pulp from halves, forming tomato shells. Finely chop pulp and place in a bowl. Finely chop 2 tomato halves, then add to bowl.

Brush remaining tomato halves all over with oil. Place on grill, cut-side down, over high heat. Barbecue, without turning, until marked on cut side, about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, stir feta, mint and pepper into tomatoes in bowl. After 5 minutes of grilling, remove tomato halves. Spoon tomato-cheese mixture into hollow of each grilled tomato half, pressing filling gently.

Place tomatoes back on grill, filling-side up. Cover and grill until tomatoes are hot, from 4 to 5 minutes.

This recipe yields 6 servings.

Comments: Filled with herbed feta and fresh mint, these warm tomatoes are fantastic as a side dish or appetizer.
