It was great! i think maybe i used too much herbs though - less than two cups, but it wasn't fresh herbs. next time i'll try it with fresh herbs.

Great flavor and great technique. I used 2 tomatoes, one I would consider medium-large and one medium. I used half the cheese/herb mixture but would use the entire amount next time for just two tomatoes.
