Baked Italian Parmesan Tomatoes

On dark, wet, long Saturdays, there's plenty of times when you just want to stay home. But your appetite doesn't. A lot of the time you'll want to just lounge around the house with your hair back, in sweats, no make up on (this may be very familiar to lots of young moms or college students).. Am I right or wrong?
Wait, no, you really shouldn't answer that. I'm right. 
Anyways, on these days you want to have a gourmet meal at home without spending all that cash with having it delivered to your house, you can easily make a blissful, light tasting, yummy italian side dish that goes great with some salad & a veggie burger, a doctored up italian pasta, or even some garlic-cheese bread toast& salad. So here is my baked parmesan tomato italian side dish
