These tomatoes were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some herbs and spices next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tomatoes came out really soggy. I think I might have used too much oil.

I used panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs and they gave the tomatoes a really nice crunchy coating.
