Cheese Stuffed Baked Tomatoes

Ingredients

• 4 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
• 3 oz. shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (1/2 cup)
• 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh basil leaves
• 2 tbsp. freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

1. Heat oven to 400� F. Scoop out the inside of each tomato half with a melon baller and roughly chop the scooped pulp. Combine tomato pulp, mozzarella, basil, Parmesan, garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
2. Place tomatoes, cut side up, on a baking sheet. Spoon in tomato mixture and bake until cheese is melted and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Serve warm.
