Why, soitanly. I didn't measure, just eyed things, and used store-boughten croutons cuz I was in a rush (but I rarely make my own anyway).
2 lg tomatoes
1 med onion
1 tbsp garlic
celery salt to taste
Tiger seasoning
1/2 to 3/4 cup olive oil
1 box croutons (choose your flavor)
Coarsely chop tomatoes; slice or chop onion; toss together in bowl. Season with garlic, celery salt and Tiger Seasoning. Add olive oil and stir to mix flavorings. Add croutons and stir well to coat croutons.
Pour into a 9"x9" baking pan sprayed with Pam or brushed with olive oil. Bake 30 minutes at 400°F.
If you like less done, bake at a lower temp or bake a shorter time at a high temp. I really have no idea how much oil was used - I just poured until I thought the amount of liquid looked right (big help there, eh). There needs to be enough liquid, from the tomatoes along with the oil, to coat all of the croutons.
I think maybe the true southern recipe didn't have olive oil, or maybe even oil at all, but it seemed right at mixing, and tasted wonderful. It surely didn't have Praise Allah/Tiger Seasoning but that seemed a good idea at the time, also.
