Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Lola cooked stewed tomatoes as a good country side dish. She served it with corn bread, and pot roast or fried chicken. Stewed tomatoes would be something that you would serve for lunch, not something you would put out on a dining room table. She has fixed stewed tomatoes many times, usually in the summer time when you have fresh tomatoes.
