Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Wash and dry the Roma tomatoes. Slice them in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and pulp to create a cavity. Transfer them to a baking dish, cut side up.
Drizzle olive oil evenly over the tomatoes and season with salt and ground black pepper.
In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, chopped basil, and chopped parsley.
Fill each tomato half with the herb and garlic mixture.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the tomatoes, followed by the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Top with crushed red pepper flakes for added heat, if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Enjoy your aromatic and delicious Keto Herb and Cheese Baked Tomatoes as a wonderful side dish or appetizer!
