Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Prepare cheese spread by combining mayonnaise, cheese and grated onion. Salt and pepper to taste. Grease a 13-by-9-inch casserole dish with butter or pan spray.

Cut seven slices of bread into medium-sized cubes and layer bottom of pan evenly. Layer tomato slices, shingle style, over the bread, reserving the neatest slices. Trim crust from remaining eight bread slices and arrange on top of tomatoes. Cover the top layer of bread slices with a little more than half of the cheese mixture. Arrange remaining tomato slices in shingle style as before. Season again with salt and pepper. Dollop remaining cheese spread in rows across the top. Bake uncovered for 25 minutes or until cheese spread turns golden brown. Serve immediately.
