Baked Parmesan Tomato Slices
I wanted something easy and delicious to pair with the Roasted Garlic Mashed Red Potatoes and Pot Roast that I was serving for dinner. I had some nice firm tomatoes that I sliced up then seasoned each slice before topping them with grated parmesan, dried basil, and a bit of olive oil. I baked them until tender and the cheese had melted. These baked parmesan tomato slices paired perfectly with the potatoes and beef and tasted delicious.
How to Make Baked Parmesan Tomato Slices
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with tin foil then coat with cooking spray.
Slice the tomatoes then place them on the baking sheet. Sprinkle each tomato half with sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, and garlic powder, to taste. Top each slice with grated parmesan cheese and a touch of dried basil, to taste. Drizzle a touch of olive oil on each slice, if desired.
Place into the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until tomatoes are soft and cheese is melted and slightly golden. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately or at room temperature. Enjoy.

Very easy, yet so tasty side dish!

Pam these tomatoes look absolutely wonderful!!

I never thought of bedecking the tomato slices and roasting them! These look terrific, Pam.
This is something I would cook a batch of and eat it for dinner—-maybe a salad too.
Simple and delicious and guilt free.
Nice recipe, especially for tomatoes no longer in season. Makes a really great side dish.
Lol, I made Baked Tomatoes tonight for dinner, Pam with lamb chops and quinoa. So funny, wish I had sprinkled the parmesan. I did, however, stick slivers of garlic in the pulp part of the tomatoes and trickled oil over the top. Oh yum!!!
Great minds, lol…I’m sure the Pot Roast was delicious!!!
Great food doesn’t have to be complicated, right? They look superb, Pam.
We only get firm tomatoes here at this time of year, so I’m loving this!
Delicious if you can get your hands on some quality tomatoes. Ours have already gone into their winter funk around here – I miss summer ‘maters.
very simple and so taste š
i’ll try to make it tomorrow
