When I met Hubby, he wouldn't even look at a tomato. He would pull it out of a burger, avoid them in salads and just avoid them altogether. For me, I grew up eating sliced fresh tomato with my meals and always ask for extra for my burger. However, as time has passed and I have been creative in my tomato making, he has come around. Amazing!! Last night, I made this little side dish to go with steak and corn. Much to my surprise, Hubby inhaled a few. Isn't it amazing how 3 years with a tomato-a-holic like me will change a person?
2 roma tomatoes, sliced into fourths
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup shaved fresh parmesan cheese
1/8 cup shaved fresh mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/8 cup fresh parsley
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Lay out the sliced tomatoes on a cookie sheet and drizzle them with the olive oil. Add the shaved parmesan to each slice, then the mozzarella. Sprinkle the bread crumbs on the slices and top with the chopped parsley.
Bake for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
Boy are these good!! They make a perfect accompaniment to a main course or they can stand on their own as an appetizer for your next get together.

I love this! I grew up eating sliced tomatoes with a little salt and pepper. Hubs prefers them in a tomato sandwich. My kids hate them :( lol. I'll have to try this version out now!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so wonderful. Cannot wait to try this out. Delish.
ReplyDeleteThese sound delicious and love the combination of fresh parsley with tomato and parmesan. No wonder your hubby loved them ;) Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love tomatoes! The more the better. And with cheese? Yes please!
ReplyDeleteI also hated tomatoes growing up, and it was cheese that changed all that for me. There's something about melted cheese over tomatoes that makes you see them in a whole different light!
ReplyDeleteThis is worth a try, definitely! Just pinned this! Hopping from Adorned from above blog hop.
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, I can smell them. I also add some garlic, I am garlicoholic:) I am following you through blognetwork and Gf. Have a fabulous weekend!
ReplyDeleteThese look yummy - I can hardly wait for fresh tomatoes this summer!! Men!! They can be so fussy; mine won't touch cucumbers, yet like pickles and tzatziki....go figure.
ReplyDeleteStopping by, this time, from Foodie Friday!!
These sound fantastic! Always nice to change up the side dish once in a while. I bet you will be serving these more often at your house now that you know it will help your husband eat tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good and easy to make! I must try them!
