Tip

Slicing Tomatoes

The best way to cut through the skin of a tomato is with a serrated, not straight-edged, knife. Cut a tomato vertically, from stem end to blossom end, for slices that will be less juicy and hold their shape better.

Light-Bodied White Wine

Enjoy this recipe with a light-bodied white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.

Good. Used mozzarella slices instead, worked well for me. It does remind you of pizza. Wonder what pepperoni on top would taste like? I'll try that next time.

These made a nice side dish to our steaks last night. Too much salt for us as well - I will just add it to taste next time... Loved the cheese mixture!!! It would be good served on bread, with or without the tomato!

This is a wonderful appetizer! Every one of my guests loved it! I did use low-fat ricotta, fat-free mayo & omitted the salt. I'll be making this often!!!

Making this for the second time today. The family loved it, said it tasted almost like little pizzas. Left out the salt.

This recipe is amazing, however we did not bother with the ricotta cheese. Very yummy! They taste like mini pizzas. They are a great side for anything off the grill.

Absolutely fabulous. I've made it twice now, and my husband keeps asking when I'm going to make it again. I tend to dislike when people submit reviews when they've changed ingredients, but here I go ... I couldn't see spending $5 for a carton of ricotta, the rest of which I would not use before it went bad, so I subbed cottage cheese. Used oregano as directed the first time, but subbed basil the second time ... both with equally good results. Also, I sprinkled some dry bread crumbs on top before broiling. Delicious, delicious ... thank you for the recipe!
