Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut the tops off tomatoes and
scoop out seeds and pulp, leaving enough pulp to keep the
tomato skin intact. Drain tomatoes upside down. Cook corn as

tender. Add corn, thyme and basil. Season to taste with
pepper. Heat gently 1 minute. Fill tomatoes with corn mixture.
Place tomatoes in shallow baking dish and sprinkle tops
with crumbs. Place 1/4 pat of margarine atop each tomato.
