Tomato Gratin

Tomatoes, tomatoes.
our own crop
Last year it was apples we were "drowning" in, this year there are our garden-fresh tomatoes.
We have been eating tomatoes every day for the last two month and since they are so tasty, we haven't got tired of it.
But now: they are ripening way faster than we can eat them. I have to do something before they waste away.
Today we had tomato gratin for supper with brown rice. I went searching and
I found a good recipe here.
Had to change it a bit because I didn't have all the ingredients required.
spread slices in the dish
top with cheese and bread crumbs
bake it and enjoy!
What I used:
4 big tomatoes, sliced
1 thin sliver of garlic, minced (enough to give flavour but not overpowering)
2 dried rolls, crushed with a baking pin
1 cup breakfast ham, in cubes
1/2 cup bacon, in cubes
1/4 cup of sharp old cheddar, in cubes
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 tblsp Italian herbs
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 tblsp olive oil
2 leafs fresh basil. cut into pieces

Baked for 20 minutes by 425° F.
VERY tasty.

Tomorrow I will do the rest of my tomatoes.
Oven-baked tomatoes. Maybe you want to follow me there?
