Green Tomato and Onion Casserole
 

This is a healthier alternative to Fried Green Tomatoes. Of course, if you want to use full-fat cheese, go right ahead!

I used more toms than the recipe calls for, simply because I had them. It also works well in the microwave - nuke on high for 10-15 min.

[SIZE=2]6 medium tomato(es), Green, sliced
1 large onion(s), sliced
1 cup(s) bread crumbs, whole wheat
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 cup(s) low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
5 spray(s) cooking spray

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400F. Spray a 1-quart casserole, deep-dish pie pan with cooking spray.
Combine sugar and pepper in a small bowl; mix well.
Arrange one-third of the tomato slices in the bottom of pan. Arrange half of the sliced onion on top of the tomatoe slices. Sprinkle one-third of the sugar mixture, one-third of the bread crumbs, and 1/3 cup Cheddar over onions. Repeat with a second layer. For third layer, add remaining tomatoes, sugar mixture and bread crumbs. Spray lightly with cooking spray. Cover with foil.
Bake 1 hour. Uncover and sprinkle remaining 1/3 cup Cheddar on top. Bake 5 minutes longer, or until cheese melts. Remove from oven and let stand 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend. Serves 4.

Whoops! Excuse the cut-and-paste nonsense at the bottom of the recipe.
