Best Summertime Baked Tomatoes Recipes

MOZZARELLA & PARMESAN BAKED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 400F (200 C). Lightly grease a cookie sheet with olive oil.
• Grill the tomato slices on either a pan grill or bbq. Then place on prepared cookie sheet.
• Sprinkle the slices with salt and oregano, top each slice with shredded mozzarella, and parmesan cheese. Bake for approximately 8-10 minutes or until cheese has melted and top is slightly golden. Top with fresh basil and serve. Enjoy!

PARMESAN OVEN BAKED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Using a blender, food processor or Magic Bullet, process the bread into fresh breadcrumbs. (This took about 1 second in my Magic Bullet).
• In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs, cheese, garlic, olive oil, herbs, salt and pepper. Toss until well mixed.
• Place sliced tomatoes in a shallow baking dish, season with salt & pepper. Top with breadcrumb mixture.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes or until crumbs are lightly browned. Be sure not to over bake so the tomatoes don't become mushy.

SUMMERTIME BAKED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Slice the tomatoes in half horizontally, sprinkle each cut side with salt, and place cut sides down on paper towels for about 5 minutes. Hollow out the tomato halves, leaving sides 1/4 inch thick; remove seeds from pulp, and chop the pulp.
• Place the chopped tomato pulp, squash, herb stuffing mix, basil, black pepper, and mozzarella cheese in a bowl, and mix until thoroughly combined. Stuff the mixture into the hollowed-out tomato halves.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the squash is tender and the cheese has melted, about 20 minutes.

BAKED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine tomatoes, onion and 1 cup cold water in a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 30 minutes. Stir in the sugar, salt and pepper. Meanwhile, cut the bread into 12 square pieces and toast. Set aside.
• Brush the inside of a baking dish with the melted butter. Add the tomato mixture. Tuck the pieces of toast on the sides. Bake for 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.

BAKED TOMATOES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 250°F. Cut away and discard the crust from the loaf of bread and cut the loaf in half lengthwise. Bake for 5 minutes on each side. Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes.
• 2. Raise the oven temperature to 350°F on convection heat or to 375°F in an oven without convection heat.
• 3. Cut the bread into chunks small enough to fit easily in a food processor. Place them in the food processor and pulse until you have fairly even crumbs that are not too fine. Set aside 1 cup of crumbs and reserve any extra for another use.
• 4. Finely chop enough parsley leaves to measure about 2 tablespoons. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Put the parsley, garlic, bread crumbs, capers, salt, and olive oil in a mixing bowl. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly distributed and the bread crumbs are well coated with the olive oil. If there doesn't seem to be enough olive oil to coat them all, add a little more.
• 5. Cut the tomatoes in half crosswise and scoop out all the seeds. Place the tomatoes, cut side up, on a baking sheet. Fill the cavities with a generous amount of the bread-crumb mixture, heaping it on top of each tomato half.
• 6. Bake until a brown crust forms, about 20 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.
