Herb Baked Tomatoes
- 8 medium ripe tomatoes (heirloom are good, but any will work!)
- 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
- 3 tablespoons grainy mustard
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Preheat the oven to 375u0b0 F.
- Slice the tops off of each tomato and remove the seeds and insides using a spoon. You don't need to fully hollow out the tomato, just make a shallow dent in the top.
- Place the tomatoes in a shallow baking dish.
- Combine the mustard and 1/8 cup of the olive oil together. Spread a thin layer of the mustard mixture evenly over the top of each tomato.
- Combine the breadcrumbs, parsley, Parmesan, and salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Divide the mixture evenly among all the tomatoes. Depending on the size of your tomatoes, you may need to make more filling-just stick with the same general proportions of ingredients.
- Drizzle the tops of the tomatoes with the remaining olive oil.
- Bake the tomatoes for about 20 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are a deep golden brown and the tomatoes are soft on the edges.
- Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then serve warm. (They are also delicious cold the next morning!)
