Herbed grilled tomatoes

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 mediums Tomatoes; halved crosswise
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 tablespoons Bread crumbs
4 eaches Basil leaves; shredded
1 teaspoon Fresh thyme, oregano or rosemary (or 1/4 tsp dried)
2 teaspoons Grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
x Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Brush half of oil over sides and bottoms of tomatoes. Brush tops with mustard. Combine cheese, bread crumbs, herbs; sprinkle on top of tomatoes. Drizzle on rest of oil to dampen bread-crumb topping. Add pepper. Put tomatoes on grill, cut side up; cover. Grill till skin shrinks from top of tomatoes and tomatoes are soft but not mushy -- 10-20 minutes, depending on heat of grill. (Alternate methods: Bake in preheated 450-degree oven 15-20 minutes. Or broil 5-10 minutes.) Serves 4.
