Baked Tomatoes
Ingredients
- 8 large smooth tomatoes
- 2 green peppers
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 ½ pints milk
- 1 large onion
- 1 ½ tbsp sugar
- flour
Instructions
- Wash tomatoes, do not peel, slice piece from top of each and scoop out a little of the tomato.
- Cut peppers in two lengthwise and remove seeds—place in cold water.
- Sprinkle a little sugar and a little salt over each tomato and place in good sized baking dish.
- Put onion and peppers through meat chopper. Put ground onion and ground peppers on top of tomato.
- Put butter in skillet and when melted, not brown, stir in flour until a paste is formed. Add gradually the milk as you would for cream dressing, stir constantly.
- The dressing must be very thick to allow for the water from the tomatoes. Put this sauce around the tomatoes, not on top and place in a moderate oven to bake about one hour slow.
Notes
Serve if possible in the same dish in which it was baked as it is very attractive.
