Preparation

Step 1

Arrange oven rack at center position. Preheat to 350 degrees. Lightly coat the bottom of a 9x13" baking pan. Slice tomatoes into 1/2" thick slices. Arrange slightly overlapping in prepared pan. Salt and pepper slices generously.
In a small bowl, combine olives, onions, parsley, basil, vinegar, garlic, and 1 TBLS olive oil. Mix well and sprinkle over the tomatoes. You can prepare tomatoes 3 hours ahead; cover w/plastic wrap and leave at cool room temperature. Bake until tomatoes are hot, approx. 10 minutes. Remove and serve while warm. DO NOT OVERCOOK -- TOMATOES WILL BECOME MUSHY.
