Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, salt, baking powder and baking soda. In another bowl, whisk eggs and buttermilk.
  2. Place oil in an 8-in. ovenproof skillet; heat skillet in a 450° oven for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, stir egg mixture into dry ingredients just until moistened.
  3. Carefully swirl the oil in the skillet to coat the sides and bottom of pan; add batter. Bake at 450° for 12-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
  4. Place corn bread into a food processor; cover and process until coarse crumbs form. Set aside.
  5. Cut a 1/4-in. slice off the top of each tomato; with a spoon or melon baller, hollow out each tomato, leaving a 1/2-in. shell. Discard pulp. Sprinkle salt into each tomato; place upside down on paper towel for 10 minutes to drain.
  6. Crumble chorizo into a large skillet; add onion and pepper. Cook over medium heat for 6-8 minutes or until meat is fully cooked; drain. Cool slightly.
  7. In a large bowl, combine the corn bread crumbs, chorizo mixture, cilantro and cumin; stir in eggs. Place tomatoes in an greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Spoon corn bread mixture into each tomato, mounding in the center.
  8. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean and the tops are golden brown. Yield: 6 servings.
