Let cool slightly before serving.
For an enhanced flavor profile, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the goat cheese mixture.
If you prefer grilling, wrap each stuffed tomato in foil and grill over medium heat for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until heated through.
Serve immediately as an appetizer, side dish, or light lunch.
Try using different herbs such as thyme or oregano to complement the basil.
