Ingredients

4 Roma tomatoes
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Garlic powder
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Cut the tops and a very thin piece off the bottom of the tomatoes and stand them up close together on a small sheet pan or pie tin. Sprinkle liberally with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Carefully pile high the Parmesan cheese on top of each tomato. Bake for about 12 minutes, or until cheese starts to turn golden brown. Remove from oven and serve as a vegetable and a garnish.

Hint: Cook the tomato fromage in the oven with your entree for the last 10 to 12 minutes of cooking so that they are done together.

Not for Me

I don't know if it's the variety of tomatoes that I have available to me, or the quality of growing conditions here, but... baking/roasting tomatoes tends to give them an "off" flavor. Unfortunately, this isn't the only recipe where I've experienced this issue. The recipe looks great, but it just doesn't seem to work for us very well.Read more

This was a very good recipe. I sliced my tomatoes, however, and placed them under the broiler for a few minutes. It really... gave them an extra "spark."Read more

Great tasting, healthy dish
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This is a great dish, but made a couple of changes: 1. Cut the tomatoes down the center and lay them on the side. This... gave more room for the cheese. 2. Omit the salt. The garlic powder and ground pepper was more than enough flavor.Read more
