• 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.

Place the tomatoes, cut side-up, and the scallions and thyme on a hot part of the grill and cook for 2 minutes. Flip the scallions and thyme and gently flip the tomatoes onto the cut sides. Place the chives on the grill near the scallions. Cook until tender and lightly charred, an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
