I've also tried this recipe with different types of cheese. Mozzarella and cheddar are both good substitutes for Parmesan.

I like to add a little bit of garlic powder to this recipe. It gives the tomatoes a nice savory flavor.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. I always have a few extra tomatoes in the summer, and this is a great way to use them up.
