I didn't exactly use the pesto, instead sauteed a bunch of mushrooms with shallots and garlic, and put those in the bottom of the tomato. Then heated up some leftover farro and mixed in the unused mushroom mixture with a heap of spinach. Made for an excellent vegetarian mean, for distinctly non-vegetarian! Thank you again!!!

I didn't have romaine lettuce and I'm not a big fan of pesto, so I mixed some freshly shredded mozzarella with some basil, thyme, rosemary and oregano, put that at the bottom of the hollowed-out tomatoes, filled the rest of the tomato with an egg, sprinkled the top with a little more spice and a few shreds of cheese, and popped 'em into the oven. It was delicious. I would never have thought to mix eggs and tomatoes in that way. I just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration.

I wonder if basil pesto wouldn't be overpowering. And, by the way, I think your photo is better than the one in Gourmet! This sounds really delicious.

I wouldn't enjoy these anything but warm, but if cold soft-cooked eggs don't bother you, go for it. Personal taste, really.

I'm going to make them to take to a brunch tomorrow and I'm wondering if they are baked around 9am will they be tasty at 11? Can these be made ahead of time or are they better served warm?
