Ingredients

  • 6 Roma tomatoes
  • Cooking oil spray
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper
  • 1 1/3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF and lightly spray a rectangle baking dish with cooking oil spray.
  • To prepare the tomatoes, cut the tops off of each and set aside. Use a spoon to scoop out the inside flesh and place it into a bowl. Season with garlic salt, and pepper, and add in the mozzarella, parmesan, and basil.
  • Arrange the tomato shells into your prepared baking dish. Fill each with the cheese mixture.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, then cover with the reserved tops and continue to bake for 2-4 minutes.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave until the tomatoes are just warmed through. I do not recommend freezing these tomatoes.
