Ingredients
- 3 whole tomatoes sliced in ¼-1/2" slices
- 4 ounces blue cheese crumbles (more if desired)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar
Instructions
- Use large tomatoes, at least 3" in diameter for the best result.
- Slice the tomato's about ¼-½" thick for the best results.
- Cover each tomato with the blue cheese. Sprinkle the sugar evenly across all tomatoes and drizzle with the olive oil.
- Place under the broiler for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and just starting to brown. They are best if served immediately while nice and hot. **Watch them carefully to make sure the cheese doesn't burn.
Notes
- Use large tomatoes, at least 3" in diameter, for the best results.
- Slice tomatoes ¼–½" thick so they hold their shape while broiling.
- Keep a close eye on them—broilers can go from perfect to burnt fast.
- These can also be made in a toaster oven using the broiler setting.
- Use your favorite blue cheese crumbles for simplicity, or buy a wedge and crumble it yourself. Use more or less as desired (but really… more is better).
