Baked Tomatoes
Here I present my recipe for Baked tomatoes; this is the perfect recipe to highlight fresh, plucked from the garden tomatoes.
This proud Canadian girl 🇨🇦 would like to announce a bountiful tomato season 🍅
Mike is developing quite the green thumb.
So now we’re tasked with eating the plentiful bounty only… Mike doesn’t like tomatoes 🙈
We did discover though that mike likes the grilled tomatoes we’ve been eating lately so really, Baked Tomatoes were just a hop, skip and a jump away.
Mike said they’re “okay”… I consider that a win… He ate two of them ✌️
This is how you make them
Preheat your oven 375.
Lay a sheet of parchment paper o a baking sheet (this really makes clean up a breeze).
Lay the tomato slices on the parchment paper; season with salt and pepper.
Top with a pinch of the grated mozzarella cheese.
Top with a small pinch of oregano
Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Broil to darken cheese if so desired.
Enjoy 🙂
Ingredients used in this dish
Great Value Mozzarella Cheese
Great Value Oregano Leaves
What I served with this dish
Greek Rice
and
Barbequed Salmon with a Spicy Sesame-Soy Glaze
I love the way the rice absorbs the juice from the tomatoes.
Pro Tip
When plating your dinner lay the tomatoes over the rice, on the righthand side so some of the rice is uncovered too.
