ESCALLOPED TOMATOES

Put sliced tomatoes in layers in a baking-dish, seasoning with salt, pepper, and dots of butter, and onion-juice if desired, alternating with crumbs. Have the top layer of crumbs and butter. A cupful of stock may be poured over. Cover and bake until well done then uncover and brown. A little sugar may be added to the seasoning; or, season each layer of tomatoes with minced onion and grated cheese and have crumbs on top. Green tomatoes may be used, or drained canned tomatoes.
