I had these once when I was in the hospital and been making my version of them ever since. Best part is they are not fattening.
Ingredients:
4 beefsteak tomatoes (or any large)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs or 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
1/2 cup mixed italian herbs (such as basil, oregano, thyme, parsley)
8 1/4 teaspoons unsalted butter
salt & freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Turn on your broiler. A toaster oven with broiling ability is great or a George Foreman Grill.
2. Remove the cores of the tomatoes then cut them in half (horizontally).
3. Place cut side up: then rub Olive oil over cut side (use fingertip).
4. Sprinkle bread crumbs on next.
5. Sprinkle Herb seasonings on and salt/pepper.
6. Then place 1/4 teaspoon of unsalted butter on each half.
7. Broil until tomato is hot completely.
8. ^May add cheese or mushrooms when nearly done, but don't get them to close to burners in oven.
