Remember when they used to serve meals on airplanes? Not just a cold sandwich you have to pay extra for, but a full-on warm meal on a tray??? I never liked airplane food that much {but now appreciate the fact that they gave it to you at no extra cost} and could never stand the smell. There was however, one thing I always looked forward to....broiled tomatoes. It doesn't sound like something a kid would like, but then again, I've always been a little strange.
Today I recreated a childhood memory, but I used roma tomatoes and feta cheese.
Ingredients:
2 roma tomatoes
1/4 cup reduced fat feta
fresh cracked pepper
Start by cutting the tomatoes in half, lengthwise. {Cut a small slice off the back sides just so they'll lay flat.} Sprinkle the feta on top and place under the broiler until cheese starts to brown.
Add fresh cracked pepper to taste and enjoy!

I broiled mine in the toaster oven....no sense in heating the whole oven for two tomatoes if I don't have to. This makes a great snack or a fun side dish for dinner. I can picture it now with salmon and grilled asparagus. Yum!
