STEWED TOMATOES IN CROCKPOT

2 tablespoons margarine (I use bacon grease)

1 medium onion, thinly sliced

3/4 cup chopped celery

1/2 cup chopped green pepper

3 tablespoons sugar (more or less)

1 small bay leaf

1 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

DIRECTIONS

Core tomatoes; place in boiling water for about 15 to 20 seconds, then into ice water to cool quickly; peel.

Cut tomatoes in wedges. In Crock Pot, combine all ingredients.

Cover and cook on low 8-9 hours.

Remove bay leaf. Sprinkle top with parsley, if desired.

?Serve as a side dish or freeze in portions for soups or other recipes.

Serves 6.
