Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. Cut 1/4 inch off the top of each tomato. Scoop out pulp and seeds, leaving about 1/2-inch-think shell. (Reserve tomato pulp for another use or discard.) Place cut-side-up in baking dish. Evenly sprinkle tomatoes with 1/4 teaspoon pepper and the seasoning blend.
  3. Break an egg into each tomato. Sprinkle each egg with 1/2 teaspoon cheese and the remaining 1/4 tsp pepper. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until eggs are set. Sprinkle with bacon to serve.
