These Enchilada Stuffed Tomatoes are an easy recipe that’s full of flavor.

This post contains sponsored links from Produce for Kids, however all opinions are 100% my own.

When I was growing up, I remember my grandmother making stuffed tomatoes.  She grew up on a tomato farm in New Jersey and knew 1,001 creative ways to use tomatoes.

She would always tell us stories of her life on the farm — how she and her mother used to cook a big, hearty lunch for the farm hands and how she and her brothers used to play in the barn and outbuildings.  I loved listening to her sharing her adventures.

These Enchilada Stuffed Tomatoes from Produce for Kids remind me of her.

This summer, Produce for Kids is once again teaming up with Price Chopper to support local Feeding America® food banks.

From June 13 to July 24, shoppers can look for Produce for Kids signage in the produce department of all Price Chopper stores.

You can help by purchasing brands with the Produce for Kids logo.

 

Each time you do, you will help give back to Feeding America food bank programs that support children and families.

To date, this campaign has raised nearly $12,000 or 125,000 meals* for Feeding America!  It doesn’t get easier to help end hunger.

While I don’t think my grandmother ever had an enchilada in her 92 year life, I think she would have loved to try this recipe.
