HERBED TOMATO BREAD

Herbed Tomato Bread image

I added my favorite herbs to another recipe to create this savory tomato loaf. For extra flavor, I serve it with a garlic chive spread my family loves. In fact, my sister confiscated all the leftovers at our last gathering! Slices of this moist bread also make great grilled cheese sandwiches. -Sherry Letson, Trinity, Alabama
