Baked Tomato Recipe

I’m on a huge tomato kick right now, which seems to happen just about every summer when they are in season and oh-so flavorful. When I get to spend time in the Hamptons, I go crazy with all the farms, farm stands and farmer’s markets that surround this beautiful place. The bounty of tomatoes is inspiring. I just can’t get enough!

I pulled this recipe from Katie Brown Weekends to mix up my raw tomato-eating habits. A little herbs and bread crumbs complement the sweet and juicy flavor of the beefsteak tomato. Try this quick side dish recipe during one of your last great summer dinners…
