Ingredients

(Preparation and cooking time about 15 minutes)

2 fully ripened fresh tomatoes (about 1 pound), thickly sliced
1/4 cup prepared pesto
2 tablespoons shredded mozzarella, or grated Parmesan cheese


Directions

Preheat pan or broiler. Brush half of the pesto on both sides of tomato slices; arrange slices on grill or broiler pan. Grill until tomatoes are hot, about 4 minutes. Turn slices, brushing both sides with the remaining pesto; sprinkle the tops with mozzarella. Grill until cheese melts, about 4 minutes more. Makes 4 servings.
