  1. I had a couple of tomatoes left that I wanted to used up. I saw this recipe and thought I would try for today. I am going to bake them, unless it stops raining here and I used freshly grated parmesan (because I don't have any Colby Jack). I also added a small amount of garlic powder to the mixture. They smell wonderful. I will let you know how they turn out!!!! Thanks for the simple, easy recipe. I hope you don't mind my additions, but I used what I had on hand!!!!!!!
     
  2. Tomatoes are delicious cooked this way. We have made them many times with quite a few variations. Sometimes just like the recipe, sometimes with a little olive oil and seasoning salt sprinkled on them. We've cooked them in the oven and also on the grill when we're grilling. They always turn out great.
     
  3. These cheese-stuffed tomatoes make a different side dish for steak. I wanted something other than potatoes to go with my bbq steaks. These tomatoes were amazing I was able to use fresh basil like CelestialShannon and some left over homemade bread for the breadcrumbs. I topped with green onions instead of parsley because I didn't have parsley. I would recommend trying this recipe. Thank you for this wonderful recipe.
