This is a quick and easy appetizer for any time of the day! I was inspired by the bright red and yellow tomatoes at the grocery store and could not help but buy them. I decided to make use of some items that I already had on hand to put together some yummy snacks and ended up with these heirloom tomato parmesan bites.

- Heirloom tomatoes. I ended up using only 2
- Basil plant on hand
- 2 ounce parmesan grated finely
- 2 tbsp. panko bread crumbs
- 2-3 cloves garlic (per your taste) finely diced
- Extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Slice tomatoes in half inch thick slices. Mix bread crumbs, oil, and garlic. Line a tray with aluminum foil. Divide mixture to top 6-8 tomato slices. Broil until parmesan mixture is crispy and garlic smells delicious! Top each with a basil leaf and salt and pepper, to your liking!
This would be a great dish to serve alongside the Easy, Amazing Pizza recipe here https://watchusdostuff.com/easy-amazing-pizza/, to add a bit of a lighter option or companion option.
