Stuffed Tomatoes Recipe - Gluten Free, Dairy Free

It's been a while since I've posted a recipe. I decided to try adapting a recipe from a popular local cookbook, The Multi-Cultural Cuisine of Trinidad and Tobago & The Caribbean by Naparima Girls' High School Cookbook   .

The original Stuffed Tomatoes recipe included breadcrumbs and butter/margarine which I substituted with rice and olive oil. The picture only has one stuffed tomato because I ate the others (Haha). They tasted really good. Stuffed Tomatoes Serves 3 Ingredients: 3 large tomatoes pinch of salt 1/4 cup finely chopped onion 1/4 tsp minced garlic 1 tbsp olive oil or vegetable oil 1/4 cup finely chopped tomato pulp 1/4 cup precooked salmon or any other meat (chicken, ham, beef, etc) 1/4 cup precooked rice 1/2 tsp salt Method: Cut a thin slice off each tomato at stem e
