CHEESY BAKED PARMESAN TOMATOES
This is a wonderful side dish to any meal, also a great way to use up any extra tomatoes that you might have. The grated mozza cheese on top is only an option, I have made this many times without using the mozza or cheddar cheese, and they are still delicious. Also if desired these may be broiled under the broiler instead of baked, but I find that broiling causes the crust to burn too fast.
