This looks and is so simple, but it will fool you as to how delicious it is. Its because of the sweet cherry tomatoes. Nice meal to make at the heat of the summer when you don't feel much like cooking. A fellow worker gave me the recipe and said make sure you try this !

    Hint: The secret of this dish is VERY sweet and Very RIPE tomatoes. If you have large tomatoes, that fit this description, use them quartered. This taste really good served with crumbs made from garlic bread !
