Southern Scalloped Tomatoes

"I made this because I had a lot of tomatoes from my garden and was looking for recipes to use them, and this turned out very, very tasty! I did make some changes: a) I had no bacon so I didn't use any, but it still came out delicious. It would probably be outstanding with the bacon, though; b) I used only one-and-a-half teaspoons of sugar (raw brown sugar), not the 2 tablespoons called for. I think this worked really well, otherwise it would have been too sweet; c) I stirred in some vegetarian soup powder to the onion-tomato mixture, and a few crumbled bouillon cubes might work just as well; d) I did not use 1/4 cup butter, but just enough to saute the onions and the bread cubes, and that worked just as well. Last but not least, my garden tomatoes are organic, and the other ingredients I used (bread, onions, dried basil) were also all organic. Yum! Thanks for posting this simple and wonderful recipe! :o)"
