CREAMED TOMATOES AKA TOMATO GRAVY
I've been eating creamed tomatoes over biscuits or cornbread my entire life. It's so yummy! For those who've never had it, it tastes similar to creamy tomato soup, but it's thicker. I grew up in rural West Virginia, and everyone always called it creamed tomatoes, but a few years ago, I found out that some people call it tomato gravy. Either way, it's the same thing. My hubby also likes to pour it over his fried or mashed potatoes! I hope you enjoy it. It's always been one of those down home comfort foods for me! Serve with homemade biscuits. Here's a link to a really good recipe! https://www.recipezaar.com/26110

Steps:
- Pour tomatoes in a saucepan or skillet.
- Add butter.
- Simmer over medium heat about 15 minutes, or until tomatoes are tender. (If using juice, then just bring it up to a simmer, and continue.).
- After tomatoes are tender, mix your flour and milk in a bowl until smooth, and add to tomatoes, stirring well.
- Add salt, pepper, and sugar to taste.
- If it's too thick, add a little more milk. If it's too thin, either simmer on low until it's the desired thickness, or mix up a bit more flour and milk and add to your tomatoes.
- That's it! Serve over homemade biscuits, cornbread, potatoes, or whatever you like!

Steps:
- 1. First, cut the tops off the tomatoes and hollow them out. I use a melon-baller to hollow out my tomatoes. Then turn the tomatoes upside down and place them onto a paper towel so that they can drain very well (this keeps them from turning into baked mush).
- 2. In a heavy skillet, cook the bacon to your liking (I prefer very crispy, just before burnt, bacon). Then pull the bacon out to drain but leave the drippings in the pan. Once they're drained, chop the bacon down to coarse bacon bits and set aside.
- 3. Add the chopped onions into the skillet and cook until they are tender.
- 4. Chop up the baby spinach and add it to the onions and continue to cook until the spinach is wilted nicely.
- 5. Once the onions and spinach are done, cut the heat and add in the sour cream, tabasco sauce, salt and pepper, and about half of the chopped bacon that you cooked. Stir together until well blended.
- 6. Turn the tomatoes right side up and fill with the spinach mixture. Top each tomato with about a tablespoon or two of crumbled gorgonzola cheese, depending on how large the tomatoes are. Then sprinkle with remaining bacon bits and place them onto a prepared baking sheet.
- 7. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes. at 12 minutes, the tomatoes should still be warm and firm and the gorgonzola wil have just started to melt, at 20 minutes, the tomatoes will be less firm but the gorgonzola will be more melted.
- 8. Serve warm.

CREAMED TOMATOES ON TOAST
Juicy canned tomatoes melted into fragrant cream mimic an instant cream of tomato soup. Served over toast, they make for a simple yet indulgent breakfast, or anytime snack. This dish is inspired by a recipe in "Roast Chicken and Other Stories." In the book, Simon Hopkinson writes that his version was inspired by Edouard de Pomiane's "Cooking in 10 Minutes." Hopkinson bakes fresh tomatoes in garlicky, minty cream for half an hour. The version below, with canned tomatoes, woody herbs and a hint of cinnamon, is there for you when fresh tomatoes aren't - and, like de Pomiane's approach, takes closer to 10 minutes.

Steps:
- In a small saucepan, bring the cream, thyme and cinnamon stick to a simmer over medium-low heat.
- As cream comes to a simmer, drain the tomatoes (no need to rinse), discarding the juices. Add the whole tomatoes to the saucepan and bring to a simmer, breaking up the tomatoes with a wooden spoon. Cook until the tomatoes are soft and the cream is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- To eat, place a slice of toast in a shallow bowl or rimmed plate, and spoon the tomatoes and plenty of cream over the toast. Season with more black pepper, if you like.

Steps:
- Put the chicken breasts on a board, cover with a sheet of baking parchment and bash with a rolling pin to a 1cm thickness. Tip into a large bowl with the buttermilk and 1 tsp heaped salt, turning to coat. Cover and leave to marinate in the fridge for 4 hrs or overnight.
- Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Tip the tomatoes onto the baking sheet with the garlic and thyme. Drizzle over the olive oil, season and roast for 50 mins-1 hr, or until soft but holding their shape.
- For the corn, heat the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat until foaming. Add the shallot, reduce the heat to low and fry for 10 mins until softened. Cut the kernels from the corn cobs and add these to the pan along with 125ml water. Simmer for 5 mins, then add the cream and simmer, uncovered, for 5 mins more. Remove from the heat, blitz the mixture to a rough texture with a hand blender, then stir through the cheese and season to taste. Set aside.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade, wiping away any excess using kitchen paper. Tip the beaten eggs into a shallow bowl, put the flour in a second and the panko in a third. Dip each marinated chicken breast into the flour, then the egg and lastly the panko. Heat the oil in a large skillet or non-stick frying pan over a medium-low heat and fry the breaded chicken breasts for 5-6 mins on each side or until golden and cooked through (you may need to do this in batches). Gently reheat the creamed corn, then serve with the schnitzel and roast tomatoes.
