Sliced Baked Tomatoes
Ingredients
3-4 tomatoes, cut into 1⁄2-inch slices (Good, beefy tomatoes are the best.)
1⁄2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1⁄4 cup fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, shredded or grated
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
1. Heat oven to 400*F. Spread tomato slices on parchment-lined baking sheet in single layer. Mix remaining ingredients in small bowl. Divide topping mixture between tomato slices and bake until cheese is melted and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Serve warm.

This recipe was mentioned to us by Art’s parents a few weeks ago and a bit of googling led me to the South Beach Diet. The original recipe is a stuffed plum tomato recipe but I have better access to non-plum tomatoes so I adapted it for tomato slices instead. These were super tasty and easy to make, Art loved them. Pine nuts would be a tasty addition to the mix if desired.
