Baked Green Tomato Casserole image

This is a tangy side dish ... if you want it less tangy add a bit more sugar. I like more bread in mine and only make two layers but the original recipe calls for 3. Recipe Source: American Profile

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 -6 slices thickly sliced French bread, slices torn into small pieces (about 2-3 cups)
4 medium green tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch slices (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F Lightly grease a 1½-quart casserole, deep-dish pie pan, or 4 ramekins.
  • Place bread in a food processor and pulse to a coarse texture. Combine sugar, salt and pepper in a small bowl; mix well.
  • Arrange one-third of the tomato slices in the bottom of pan. Sprinkle one-third of the sugar mixture, one-third of the bread crumbs, and 1/3 cup Cheddar over tomatoes. Repeat with a second layer. For third layer, add remaining tomatoes, sugar mixture and bread crumbs. Dot with butter. Cover with foil.
  • Bake1 hour. Uncover and sprinkle remaining 1/3 cup Cheddar on top. Bake 5 minutes longer, or until cheese melts. Remove from oven and let stand 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend.
