Broiled Tomatoes Provencal - Makes 8 servings.

• Olive oil
• 4 medium firm, ripe tomatoes
• 1/2 cup bread crumbs, preferably whole wheat
• 2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan
• 2 Tbsp. chopped flat-leaf parsley
• 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh basil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Preheat the oven to 350. Lightly oil a 7x11-inch baking dish and set aside.

If necessary, cut a thin slice from the bottom of each tomato so that it will stand upright. Combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, parsley, basil, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper. Cut the tomatoes in half crosswise; then gently squeeze out their seeds. Arrange cut side up in the baking dish. Spoon the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the tomatoes, gently patting down on top of each tomato half. Bake until the breadcrumbs are golden and the tomatoes are softened, about 50 minutes.
