We liked the crumbly Parmesan topping on these thick tomato slices. I sprinkled a t minced garlic on the tomatoes before adding the topping. This is a very good side dish! Very easy and one I will make again! Thanks Dorothy!

Derf this is a wonderful recipe! I used plum tomatoes, parmesan blend cheese, and dried basil instead of fresh. So simple and very good, loved the flavor of the baked tomatoes. Served with Kozmic Blue's All-In-One Broccoli Macaroni and Cheese for a enjoyable meatless supper tonight.

This was good--I should have read the other reviews & cooked this at a slightly higher temp to get a crunchy crust. I liked this a lot and will make again as a light side (good way to get some veggies in, too!).
