Oven-Baked Tomatoes Instructions
- Place the stuffed tomatoes on a baking sheet.
- Set the oven to broil. If you get a choice between "lo" and "high" broil, choose high.
- Broil for 3-5 minutes. Watch closely because the broiler works fast. Remove from the oven when the cheese is melty and lightly browned.
Notes
- Really mush up the cheese with the fork when mixing. Feta is pretty chunky, and you want the stuffing to be fairly consistent in texture.
- A serrated bread or cheese knife makes the cleanest cuts for slicing the tomatoes in half.
- If you'd like larger servings, use Roma tomatoes.
