  4. Slice the first clove of garlic & put a few slices at the bottom of each boat  
  5. Drizzle 1 of the teaspoons of olive oil over each boat
  6. Dice the tomato & fill each boat with some  
  7. Slice the other clove of garlic & sprinkle those pieces on top of the tomatoes 
  8. Sprinkle each boat with some crumbled feta cheese  
  9. Drizzle the last tablespoon of olive oil over the boats  & top with breadcrumbs if desired
  10. Bake for 20-25 mins or until the tops are golden & the eggplant cuts through easy
