CREAMED TOMATOES AKA TOMATO GRAVY

Steps:

• Pour tomatoes in a saucepan or skillet.
• Add butter.
• Simmer over medium heat about 15 minutes, or until tomatoes are tender. (If using juice, then just bring it up to a simmer, and continue.).
• After tomatoes are tender, mix your flour and milk in a bowl until smooth, and add to tomatoes, stirring well.
• Add salt, pepper, and sugar to taste.
• If it's too thick, add a little more milk. If it's too thin, either simmer on low until it's the desired thickness, or mix up a bit more flour and milk and add to your tomatoes.
• That's it! Serve over homemade biscuits, cornbread, potatoes, or whatever you like!
