Healthy Snack Recipe:
Baked Parmesan Tomatoes


A sprinkle of Parmesan and a drizzle of olive oil transform tomatoes into the perfect side dish. Or try sandwiching them between slices of your favorite whole-wheat country bread.
 
Ingredients

  • 4 tomatoes, halved horizontally                       
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt           
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese            
  • Freshly ground pepper, to taste           
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano                       
  • 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil           

 

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450° F.
  2. Place tomatoes cut-side up on a baking sheet. Top with Parmesan, oregano, salt and pepper. Drizzle with oil. Bake until the tomatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
