DescriptionThis warm, cheesy side dish pairs tomato and basil with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese—a match made in heaven if there ever was one! Serve it with grilled chicken, steak, or fish.
Prep time: 10 minutes
Start to finish: 10minutes
Ingredients
2 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
11/2 ounces shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (1/4 cup)
1/8 cup roughly chopped fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 garlic clove, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Heat oven to 400°F.
Scoop out the inside of each tomato half with a melon baller and roughly chop the scooped pulp. Combine tomato pulp, mozzarella, basil, Parmesan, garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place tomatoes, cut side up, on a baking sheet. Spoon in tomato mixture and bake until cheese is melted and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Serve warm.
