Four Cheese Broiled Tomato Slices




The original recipe comes from Taste of Home's Simple & Delicious July/August 2009 edition page 47. Per my usual, I modified the recipe.

Ingredients:

2-4 medium to large tomatoes
1/2 cup or so of fresh Parmesan & Romano cheese
1/2 cup or so of provolone (the original recipe calls for mozzarella)
1/2 cup or so of cream cheese (the original recipe calls for ricotta)
1/2 cup of mayo (or a heaping tablespoon in my case)
1 Tbsp or so of the spice of your choice (i.e., oregano, basil etc. or a combination)
garlic and salt to taste

Slice the tomatoes and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Mix the remaining ingredients. I like to microwave the mixture for 30-45 seconds to get it good and creamy. Place about 1 Tbsp of the cheese mixture on each slice of tomato and Broil for 2-5 minutes or until the cheese mixture is golden brown.
