This time of year the tomatoes are plentiful and this is the time of the year to make this dish. This is one of my all time favorite dishes my Grandmother Patty always had on the Sunday dinner table. With fresh tomatoes from the garden the flavor of this dish is unbeatable.
Ingredients:
6 fresh ripe tomatoes, peeled and chopped up
2 cups of chopped up stale French Bread
1 tbsp to 1/2 cup of sugar (season to your taste)
Salt and pepper to taste
3 tbsp butter
Skin and chop up tomatoes. Place the tomatoes in a buttered casserole. Add sugar, salt, and pepper and stir. Chop up the French Bread and layer on top of tomatoes. Dot the bread with the butter. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes. Take out of oven and let cool for 10 minutes and serve.
Variations on this include adding garlic, chopped onion, basil, and some grated parmesan. If you make without fresh tomatoes you can use a #3 size can of tomatoes which equals 4 cups of diced tomatoes.

I think my mom may have made this when I was a kid. There's nothing like those amazing tomatoes fresh from the garden - any way you can serve them! So delicious.
mmmm a must try,my family will love this. x
This sounds yummy. I will make it for myself since no one really likes tomatoes in my family. They don't know what they are missing. Thanks!
Boy does that look good and I have a bowl of maters on the counter waiting to be used.
Sounds YUMMY!!
I've never heard of this dish, but it sounds delish! A great way to use all the great fresh veggies we have now. I'll have to give it a try. Thanks so much for sharing it with us at WIW.
Hugs,
Patti

Looks and sounds fantastic! I'm kind of tired of eating sandwiches. Hey, I'm having my first party starting later today. It's all about "tweaking." Love for you to come join up!

My Mom and Grandma made it too, but I think my Mom made it on top of the stove. Hubby never liked it so only made it once! Now I'm hungry for it, so will make some for me!

What great flavors! YUMMY! Nothing tastes like summer more than great fresh tomatoes!
Thank you so much for joining ON THE MENU MONDAY with this delicious recipe!
Looks wonderful Sherry. I like everything about the ingredients and know I would like this.
Hey, I enjoyed your post. I found it via Stone Gable's On the Menu Monday. I have never even heard of scalloped tomatoes before. I have linked in some rhubarb and banana jam I made to use up some bananas that were turning brown. Have a nice week.
Yum! This was a childhood favorite of mine.
Thanks so much for linking up to Say G’Day Saturday Sherry! I just shared this post on my Facebook page and pinned it too!
This week’s party has just started so I hope you can join in again!
Best wishes,
