Scalloped Tomatoes Recipe

Scalloped Tomatoes were a side dish I had never heard of until my sweet mother in law served it to us one day several years ago. She seemed quite surprised that I had never heard of or tasted it. For some reason I always assumed that “scalloped” meant in a cheesy creamy sauce, like when you make scalloped potatoes. In this case, it doesn’t! This rather healthy dish has no cream in sight.I think this old fashioned side dish is quite tasty–especially if you are a tomato lover.

This recipe is very cheap (if tomatoes are in season) and a great way to use up some of the tomato harvest. Notice that a can of stewed tomatoes (also very cheap) can be used if the tomato harvest is but a memory. . .
