GRILLED PARMESAN TOMATOES
We grill almost everything in the warmer season even vegetables! I always make this recipe using big juicy tomatoes from the garden, these are so good! Since these tomatoes are best served at room temperature or chilled they are great to make ahead and serve to company. Make certain to use the biggest juiciest tomatoes you can find for this, plum tomatoes just won't do! Since I really don't measure when I make these, the amounts listed are only estimated, you can really just use as much as desired to taste, but only use a small amount of honey. For 7 large tomatoes (14 halves) I find that one extra large garlic bulb will give you enough thin slices of garlic to cover 14 tomato halves. Of course you can use more garlic and use as many tomatoes as you like!

Steps:
- Set your barbecue to about 300°F or to medium-low heat.
- Place the tomato halves on a greased baking sheet cut-side up.
- Divide the garlic slices on top of each tomato (if you have any garlic slices left over just sprinkle around the tomato halves).
- Drizzle with just a very SMALL amount of honey (if using).
- Then drizzle with balsamic vinegar and then olive oil.
- Season with salt and pepper (I use seasoned salt for this).
- Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
- Place the tray of tomatoes on the grill.
- Roast until tomatoes are very soft and lightly charred (about 25-30 minutes; the cooking time will vary depending on the size of your tomatoes and the barbecue heat.
- Remove the tomatoes from the tray and place on a serving platter.
- Drizzle with more olive oil.
- These are best if served chilled or at room temperature.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the mushrooms with the olive oil, shallots, rosemary, and thyme; let sit for about 10 minutes.
- Light a fire in a charcoal or gas grill. Using tongs, remove the mushrooms from the marinade and grill until slightly softened and browned, about 2 minutes on each side. Set them aside. (You can also complete this step ahead of time, refrigerate the mushrooms, and then bring them to room temperature when you're ready to stuff the tomatoes.)
- Meanwhile, prepare the tomatoes so that you can use them to serve your salad in. Preheat the oven to 325° F. Using a sharp knife, slice the tops off the tomatoes either flat or in a zigzag pattern; you need them later so don't discard them. Using a melon baller or spoon, scoop out the insides. (You may want to save the insides for a sauce or another salad.) Set aside. Place the tomatoes into a 1-inch baking pan (you may have to adjust the bottoms-cutting carefully and only slightly-if they can't sit upright), with their tops. Bake until the skins start to wrinkle, about 15 minutes.
- When the tomatoes are finished, remove the tops and stuff with alternate layers of the mushroom mixture and the cheese. Place the tomatoes back into the oven (without the tops) just until the cheese starts to melt, about 5 minutes.
- Top each tomato with a bit of the mixed baby greens and a drizzle of the vinaigrette. Cover with the tomato tops, and serve.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm tomatoes for grilling. Roma or cherry tomatoes work well.
- Slice the tomatoes evenly so they cook evenly.
- Generously brush the tomatoes with olive oil to prevent them from sticking to the grill.
- Season the tomatoes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder before grilling.
- Grill the tomatoes over medium heat until grill marks appear and tomatoes are tender.
- Sprinkle the grilled tomatoes with Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs before serving.
- Serve grilled Parmesan tomatoes as an appetizer, side dish, or main course.
