Roasted Gorgonzola Tomatoes

I made these roasted tomatoes and Italian fried olives (recipe below) to add some zing to simple hot dogs on the grill last night.

Ingredients
2 medium plum tomatoes, cut in half lengthwise
2 tbsp. olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1/8 tsp. kosher salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
3 tbsp. Italian breadcrumbs
3 tbsp. gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

Directions
Heat oven to 450 degrees.
Using a grapefruit spoon or teaspoon, remove seeds from tomatoes. Place cut side down on paper towel to drain.
Mix 1 tbsp. of oil, garlic, salt and pepper in a bowl. Add tomatoes and toss until coated. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
Combine breadcrumbs and gorgonzola cheese. Place tomatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Fill tomatoes with breadcrumb mixture. Drizzle with remaining oil.
Roast tomatoes 20 minutes or until topping is golden brown.
