So, SO good! I used fresh tomatoes, but homegrown tomatoes would be the ultimate for this recipe. I only used 2 slices of bacon, but otherwise stuck to the recipe. Loved the bread topping! I'll be sure to make this again when I have fresh homegrown garden tomatoes. Thanx!

My mother used to make this all the time when I was growing up. She always had a garden with lots of fresh tomatoes. This is such a wonderful side-dish! So happy to have found it again!
