Directions:Preheat oven to 375º. Drizzle oil into a large pot of boiling salted water. Add the maceroni and cook according to directions on package. Drain well. Meanwhile, heat milk in a small saucepan, but don't boil it. Melt 6 T of butter in a large (4 qt) pot and add the flour. Cook over low heat for 2 min, stirring with a whisk.

Pour into a 3 qt baking dish. Arrange the chopped tomatoes on top. Melt the remaining 2 T of butter, combine with the bread crumbs and sprinkle on top. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the bread crumbs are brown on top. |
