We found this recipe in a cookbook from the library, but I'm not sure which one. It is perfect comfort food, and easy since I usually have all the ingredients. Canned tomatoes work fine in this as a substitute for fresh. Ingredients:
2 medium tomatoes, finely chopped |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1 cup milk, heated |
5 ounces cheddar cheese, grated |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne (or to taste) |
salt |
8 slices bread, toasted |
Directions:
1. Mix together the chopped tomatoes and the baking soda.
2. In a saucepan, melt the butter, stir in flour, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
3. Slowly pour in the warm milk and stir until smooth. (Mixture will be thick).
4. Add the tomato/baking soda mixture, cheese, eggs, cayenne, and salt to taste.
5. Cook over very low heat, stirring constantly, until cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth and blended.
6. Spoon over the toast and serve hot.
