Pesto Parmesan Baked Tomatoes are delicious roasted tomatoes topped with pesto and shredded Parmesan cheese. So easy to make, only 3 ingredients!
There’s so many things I love about summer, and summer tomatoes are high on that list. For this recipe, the sweeter the tomatoes the better. I usually make my own pesto, but I had a jar of Delallo pesto I didn’t want to waste, and it was perfect.
How To Make Baked Tomatoes
Easy peasy, just slice the tomatoes, top with a little pesto and shredded parmesan cheese and bake in the oven. This would be yummy with Asiago or mozzarella as well. Serve them as a side with grilled chicken or fish, or even a simple pasta with garlic and oil.
Sometimes, I slice the tomatoes in four thick slices instead, which is perfect on crusty bread. Keep in mind doing so uses more pesto and cheese, so calories change. You can also something similar with chicken, tomatoes, pesto and cheese called Chicken Pesto Bake, so good!
