Baked Tomatoes Recipe

8 large smooth tomatoes

2 green peppers

1 tsp. salt

1 1/2 pints milk

1 good sized onion

1 1/2 T. sugar

flour



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.



Now put onion and peppers through meat chopper, sprinkle a little sugar

and a little salt over each tomato and place in good sized baking dish;

now 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, now 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. Serve if possible in the same

dish in which it was baked as it is very attractive.
