i just saw this on a little public tv cooking show and had to share. I'll be making thiss on the weekend for a few friends that are coming over

4 lemons, cut in half, reserve juice.
1 cup minced basil
1/4 cup finly chopped pine nuts
6 cloves garlic finly chopped
1/3 grated parmesan cheese
1/c olive oil
1 cup grated mozzarella cheese

cut lemons in half, scrape out most of the pulp, reserve juices. but a tiny portion of the bottom of each lemon half so it stands up easily w/o rolling over

mix together basil, pine nuts, garlic, parmasean and oilive oil, fill lemons with mixture. top with mozza cheese. bake in the oven for 30 minuts at 300 degrees

On the show, they ate the entire lemon, cutting and placing it on crusty bread slices. it really is basically a pesto stuffed lemon with mozza cheese to top. I can;t wait to try

whoops, I forgot to say, when baking, pour the lemon juice in the botom of the bake dish

That sounds amazingly good!

I'm going to try it this week too, thank you for sharing the recipe.

Whooopsie, I'm assuming you add the reserved lemon pulp/juice to mixture? You don't say what to do with it.
Recipe sounds good enough to try!

discard pulp, or just add it with the juice to the bottom of the pan.

Well I thought I would let you know I made these tonight along side roast chicken and some asian black rice and my husband LOVED them! It is just as well we did not have friends coming because having eaten 1 half of a lemon, he went back into the kitchen and ate all but 1 lemon, which thank fully I managed to grap for myself. I think these will become a bit of a favourite here! Thank you so very much for sharing the recipe.

very happy you enjoyed them. I thought it would be a great one to share. I'll be posting another amazing lemon recipe in just a bit... just as good, if not BETTER.
