Baked Breaded Tomatoes

5 slices whole wheat sandwich bread made into crumbs
2 tablespons grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat leaf parsley (Italian)
1 tablespoon fresh oregano or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried
12 Roma tomatoes (plum) quarted lengthwise
4 green onions, thinly sliced, including green portions
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
1 teaspoon sugar


Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat glass or ceramic 8 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

In a bowl, combine the crumbs, cheese, olive oil, parsley and oregano. Stir and toss vigorously to coat the crumbs evenly.

In a large nonstick frying pan over medium high heat, combine the tomatoes, onions, pepper and sugar. Saute until the tomatoes soften slightly and exude some juice. 8-10 minutes.

Spread half the tomato mixture over the bottom of the prepared baking dish, then sprinkle with half the crumb mixture. Spoon the remaining tomato mixture over the crumbs, then sprinkle the remaining crumbs over the top. Bake until the crumb topping is crisp and browned about 20 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
