Instructions

  • Preheat a lightly oiled grill over medium high heat. Meanwhile, melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Sprinkle flour over butter and whisk until golden. Stir in milk and bring to a simmer. Gradually whisk in mozzarella cheese and 1/3 of the Parmesan cheese until melted. Season with salt and pepper and add Elbows; toss to combine.
  • Trim the bottom of each of the hollowed tomatoes so that they stand straight without rolling. Season tomatoes with salt and pepper. Divide mac n’ cheese and tomatoes; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, chili flakes (if using), oregano and breadcrumbs.
  • Arrange tomatoes on the grill and cook for 15-18 minutes until charred and heated through. Let tomatoes rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve alongside a green salad.
