AUNT MYRTLE'S TOMATO PUDDING

1 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. butter
1 c. tomato puree or sauce (in summer, use fresh tomatoes, diced and juiced)

2 c. toasted cubed bread (7 slices)

Put bread cubes in buttered casserole. Melt sugar and butter until smooth, add puree. Bring to a boil. Add a pinch of baking soda. Remove from heat. Pour tomato mixture over bread. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Very good for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner, with turkey or ham. This recipe is at least 100 years old.
