Spinach-Topped Tomatoes

What an awesome idea for this blog!! I love it!! I've tried several new recipes this summer and this is one of my most favorite. I hope you enjoy it.

I did not follow the recipe exactly. I substituted swiss cheese for parmesan because that's what I had. Also, I did not add the onions or the milk and I thought it turned out pretty awesome.

Spinach-Topped Tomatoes

Ingredients:
14 (1/2-inch thick) tomato slices
1 (10-oz) package frozen chopped spinach
2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
3/4 cup Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs
2/3 cup green onions, sliced thin
2 eggs
2 tablespoons milk

Coat a 13x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.

Cook spinach according to package directions; drain well. Press spinach between paper towels to thoroughly dry. Combine spinach, 1/3 cup of the Parmesan cheese and next 4 ingredients; stir well.

Spoon 2 tablespoons spinach mixture over each tomato slice; sprinkle slices with remaining Parmesan cheese. Top each tomato slice with a garnish of your choice and sprinkle slices with black pepper.

Bake uncovered at 375 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or until thoroughly heated and lightly browned.
