Argentinian stuffed tomatoes can be prepared with cherry tomatoes, or the larger, regular-sized varieties. The tomato shell is used as a container which is filled with a variety of ingredients – most commonly rice, tuna, or hard-boiled eggs. The dish is usually made during the summer months when the tomatoes are perfectly ripe and fresh. Tomates rellenos can be served as a light meal, dinner, lunch, a cold appetizer, or a side dish at barbecues, picnics, and parties. They are also a staple of every holiday meal in Argentina, especially since the most important holidays in Argentina are celebrated during the summer.
