ingredients
- 6 small tomatoes, about 1/2 lb
- 7 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1⁄2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese (or a combination, about 1/4 lb) or 1 cup monterey jack cheese (or a combination, about 1/4 lb)
- 1⁄4 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese (about 1 ounce)
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons coarse Dijon mustard
- salt

- Toss tomatoes, bread, bacon, and peas to combine. Pour into baking dish and pour egg mixture over. Cover with aluminum foil and let stand 10 minutes.

I'm a 48 y/o gay Jewish man in the suburbs immediately north of New York City. I'm a general internist, practicing and teaching at a medical college north of NYC. I also earned a Masters in Public Health degree in 2013.
After a Walt Disney World trip in Dec 2006 where I had to rent an electric scooter because I couldn't manage the walking, I decided to have gastric bypass surgery, which was done Feb 28, 2007. I lost 160 lbs (though I've gained back about 60 of that since). I can't eat as much as I used to, so I want every bite to be extra good!
