Instructions

Preparation and Broiling

  1. In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 cup ripe olives, 1/4 cup parsley, 1/4 tsp sweet basil, and 1/4 tsp oregano until well mixed.
  2. Arrange the 6 tomatoes on a broiler pan and spread the mixture evenly over the top of each slice.
  3. Broil under high heat until the topping is golden brown and bubbly, indicating the tomatoes are heated through.

💡 Make-Ahead & Storage: The topping mixture can be prepared up to 2 hours in advance and kept refrigerated, but assemble just before broiling to prevent the tomatoes from becoming watery.
