no yekky beet story here

i was feeling lazy a few nights ago, and not all that hungry, so for dinner i opted for a cheap frozen pizza. before placing it in the oven i doctored it up with some chopped tomatoes and extra shredded cheese. while eating my pizza all i could think about was how wonderful those hot tomatoes tasted.

for lunch the next day i nuked the remaining piece and, while savoring that warm flavor again, started wondering about experimenting with my tomatoes. so i googled baked tomatoe recipes. the first one i read gave me all the info i would need.

now baked tomatoes might be old hat for some of you, but this was my first taste of this delectable dish. i placed thick tomatoe slices in a baking dish. topped that with some thin slices of onions. then drizzled olive oil over that. next came a healthy layer of shredded cheese (i used parmesan, but any kind will do). after sprinkling with oregano, rosemary and black pepper, i popped it in a 425 * oven for 11 minutes.

i'm a meat lover, but i think this summer there will be a number of days i won't be taking any meat out of the freezer to thaw.
