Millie's Stewed Tomatoes
Great with sauteed fish and terrific for using bits of leftover produce at the end of your stay. The tomatoes will still be slightly crisp.
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 1/2 cup diced green pepper
• 1 tablespoon flour
• 2 cups chopped ripe tomatoes (including seeds and juices)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 3 slices toasted bread, cut into 1/2-inch squares
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Melt butter in a medium saucepan. Add onion and green pepper, and saute until tender. Add flour; cook and stir for 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, salt and sugar.
Cook and stir until mixture boils and thickens. Stir in half of the toasted squares. Pour in a greased 1-quart casserole dish. Top with remaining toast squares. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes.
