Steps
Sequence Step
1Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2Slice tops off of each tomato about 1/2 inch down from stem, making a cap. Set caps aside. Using a spoon, scoop out flesh, being careful not to pierce skin.
3Lightly grease a glass baking dish with olive oil, and space tomatoes evenly in pan with sliced sides up.
4Mix cheese and parsley. Stuff mixture into tomatoes.
5Season tomato caps with salt and pepper and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Place caps on tomatoes and bake for about 10 minutes, or until tomatoes soften and begin to look shriveled and cheese is melted.
