In preparation for International Cancer Day on February 4, three favorite food bloggers: Inbar Buskila, Sharit Atar and Roni Cohen created particularly creative red dishes.
They created the dishes in accordance with the challenge set before them by the "Halil Ha'or" association, which helps support cancer patients, among others, types of leukemia and lymphoma.

Raw materials:
Rolled out crispy dough
A bunch of cherry tomatoes
3-5 eggs
Chopped coriander
Salt and pepper to taste
A teaspoon of dried basil
Preparation:
Heat the oven to 180 degrees.
Arrange the crispy dough in the desired pattern, put halved cherry tomatoes and spices on top, and bake for about fifteen minutes.
Remove from the oven (the dough should not be brown at this stage but half ready), break the eggs on top, add salt and pepper, and return to the oven for another fifteen minutes.
I sprinkled chopped cilantro on top, but it's not mandatory (you can also put Bulgarian cubes and it turns out really delicious).

Tomatoes stuffed with flakes
A recipe by Sarit Atar

Raw materials:
12 medium sized tomatoes
1 large onion
a cup and a quarter of flakes (I used flakes in the shape of small stars)
6 tablespoons of olive oil
Teaspoon of salt
A spoonful of sweet paprika
Half a teaspoon of finely ground black pepper
A teaspoon of dried oregano
2 heaping tablespoons of tomato paste
For the sauce:
2 cups of water
A flat teaspoon of salt
1 crushed garlic clove
A small box of tomato paste
Half a teaspoon of sugar
The flakes will push the lid upwards, photo: Sarit Atar
Preparation:
Heat the oven to 180 degrees on turbo.
Finely chop the onion and fry in a pan with olive oil until lightly golden
Put the flakes in a bowl, add the fried onion, the spices (salt, paprika, black pepper, dry oregano) and the tomato paste and mix well.
Cut the top part of each tomato crosswise (save this part, it will be used to cover the tomato after the filling) and empty the tomatoes with a spoon or an ice cream scoop as you see in the video.
Fill with the flake filling only up to 3/4 of the height of the tomato and arrange in a baking dish.
Mix all the sauce ingredients in a bowl, pour over the tomatoes so that the sauce liquids enter the flakes and cover the flakes completely.
Pour the sauce also around the tomatoes and cover the top of the tomato that we cut at the beginning.
Drizzle a little olive oil on top and put in the hot oven for 35-40 minutes, until the tomatoes soften and their edges brown.
The flakes will cook and swell during baking and will push the "lid" upwards.
Before serving, pour some of the sauce over the tomatoes.
