Steps:
- Preheat the broiler. Brush a 9-by-13-inch flameproof baking dish with some of the melted butter.
- Lay 6 of the bread slices out on a baking sheet in 1 even layer. Brush the tops generously with butter. Broil, rotating the baking sheet as needed, until the bread is golden brown and toasted, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip the slices (untoasted side facing up). Put 2 slices of the Cheddar each on 3 pieces of the bread and 1 slice of the Swiss cheese each on the 3 remaining slices. Return the baking sheet to the broiler until the cheese completely melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Sandwich together each Swiss-topped bread slice with a Cheddar-topped slice. Repeat with the remaining bread, Cheddar and Swiss and more butter.
- Trim the crusts off the sandwiches, then arrange the sandwiches in 1 layer in the prepared baking dish. Scatter the Parmesan over the top.
- Scatter the tomatoes on the baking sheet, and toss with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Broil until they are very soft and the skins are wrinkled and browned in spots, 4 to 5 minutes. Scatter the tomatoes over the sandwiches.
- Switch the broiler to bake, and preheat to 350 degrees F.
- Whisk together the half-and-half, mayonnaise, eggs, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Pour over the tomatoes and sandwiches (the liquid won't completely cover). Cover with foil, and bake until the custard is mostly set, about 30 minutes. Remove the foil, and continue to bake until the casserole is hot and golden brown in spots, about 15 minutes more. Scatter the parsley on top, and serve hot.
GRILLED CHEESE & TOMATO SANDWICH
I started liking grilled cheese & tomato sandwiches years ago at a little restaurant near my office. I would go about three times a week to order a grilled provolone cheese & tomato sandwich. Today I wanted something different, something a little spicier, so I made up the following recipe. I thought it was delicious! Hope you try it and enjoy it!

GRILLED TOMATO & CHEESE
One of my favorite things to eat is grilled cheese. One of my favorite things to eat in the summer when there are fresh garden tomatoes on hand are these. Updated 8/31/08: I've edited the recipe to say chopped fresh basil as suggested by the reviewers.

GRILLED TOMATOES
I make this at least once a week. Tomatoes are even better for you when they are cooked. It enhances their nutrition. Since my husband's heart attack last year, I serve him lots of tomatoes. I have done these on the grill and in the toaster oven (when it's too cold outside to cook) and I have made it so many different ways, by changing the type of cheese I use to actually hollowing out the tomatoes and stuffing them with the ingredients. When I make them, I usually sprinkle a little home made chili powder on his because he likes his spicier, I like mine just plain. (I didn't add the chili powder in the recipe as it's a home made blend of whatever peppers were growing in our garden last year that I dehydrated and ground up) Sometimes, we have had these with no other cheese except for the feta and it is still very good. Just adjust the recipe to your likings and see what you can come up with!

Steps:
- Wash the tomatoes. Cut them in half.
- Mix together the basil, oregano, pepper, parsley. (and garlic if you are using the dried stuff).
- On the cut surface of the tomatoes, sprinkle the herb mixture(add the garlic now if using fresh).
- Sprinkle the feta cheese on top and top with the grated cheese if using.
- Place on a preheated to low temperature grill or in toaster oven.
- Grill or cook for about 10 - 15 minutes. Using tongs, carefully remove the tomatoes onto a plate. (They will be soft, so be gentle so as not to squish them!).
- An alternative cooking method is to loosely cover them with foil to make removal from the grill a bit easier. I wrap the foil up around the tomato so it has a "handle" at the top.
