English: Quick recipe for breaded tomatoes: [10200]

Not liking to spend time in the kitchen, not having a cabinet full of spices and herbs, and no longer able to just jump in the car and go to the grocery store any time I want, I experiment  every week hoping to find simple, easy food preparation ideas. This is one of my favorites. So easy to prepare.

Easy breaded tomatoes:
One can (14 oz.) stewed tomatoes
One can (14 oz.) water
Three slices bread
Three heaping t. sugar
Two Tablespoons butter or margarine, optional
1/4 teaspoon salt, optional
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
In 1 1/2- to two-quart saucepan, pour tomatoes and water. Tear bread into moderate sized pieces and drop into tomatoes. Add sugar, butter, salt, pepper, and place pan over medium heat. Stir and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and serve. If there should be leftovers, these are good right from the refrigerator.

The canned potato salad makes a good side dish. Or, you might try this simple one:

Cheesy potato salad:
2 cans German potato salad
1/2 c. grated Cheddar cheese
Crisp bacon, crumbled

Spread potato salad in 8-inch pan and sprinkle with cheese and bacon bits. Bake in 350-degree oven 20 to 25 minutes.
